The destination port is the adjacent port from the enabled portmask, that is,
if the first four ports are enabled (portmask 0xf),
ports 1 and 2 forward into each other, and ports 3 and 4 forward into each other.

The rte_eth_rx_burst() function writes the mbuf pointers in a local table and returns the number of available mbufs in the table.
Then, each mbuf in the table is processed by the l2fwd_simple_forward() function.
-The processing is very simple: process the TX port from the RX port, then replace the source and destination MAC addresses.
