+When used with lwIP from the rtems-lwip integration repository, these BSP
+variants support networking via the 0th and any one other of the Cadence GEM
+instances simultaneously. This is a limitation of the Xilinx driver,
+specifically in code referring directly to XPAR_XEMACPS_0_BASEADDR.
+
+The interfaces will not come up by default under lwIP and must be configured
+manually. There are examples of this in the start_networking() implementation
+in netstart.c as used by the network tests.
