IRQ mismatch ifconfig and /proc/interrupts

Hi People! How are you doing?

I'm writting to you because I have a doubt about interrupts.

If I look the interrupts assigned to my eth* with ifconfig, I get:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr bb:aa:bb:bb:aa:aa  
          Interrupt:20 Memory:f7e00000-f7e20000 

eth1      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr bb:aa:bb:bb:aa:aa  
          Interrupt:18 Memory:f7d00000-f7d20000

As you can see, my system assigned IRQ-20 and IRQ-18 to eth0 and eth1.

But If i look into /proc/interrupts, I don't have these interrupts:

As you can see, seems to be that eth1 has IRQ-45 IRQ-46 and IRQ-47, and eth0 has IRQ-43.
I don't understand why ifconfig shows another IRQ. 

Is this a normal behaviour? Someone would be so kind to explain me this?

Or maybe throw me some paper that explains this.

thank you very much
Best Regards

Oscar
