John, it's been a while since I've configured the BP-9600, so I may be wrong in my recollection, but I believe that the AX.25 ports aren't directly linked to the network devices that ifconfig sees. You use the axports and other ax.25 config files and ignore the network device except for TCP/IP routing.
I have some stuff -- now very ancient -- at http://www.febo.com/packet/linux-ax25/ax25-config.html that explains how all the pieces fit together. 73, John ---- John F.
