I'm trying to set up the xorp router with 2 virtual interfaces
I have added them on my ubuntu and ifconfig returns:

eth1    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:16:76:13:55:42
          inet addr:172.20.5.37  Bcast:172.20.5.255  Mask:255.255.254.0

          Base address:0x1000 Memory:93200000-93220000



my xorp config.boot:

interfaces {
    interface eth1 {

    description: "data interface"
    disable: false

      vif eth0 {
          disable: false
          address 172.20.100.100 {
            prefix-length: 23
            broadcast: 172.20.101.255
            disable: false
          }
      }

      vif eth2 {
        disable: false
        address 172.20.130.130 {
          prefix-length: 23
          broadcast: 172.20.132.255
          disable: false
        }
      }

  }
}

but when I try to run xorp I get this:
