3.       Choose Ethernet Adapter and click next

4.       Choose vmxnet3 as the Adapter Type, and select a network connection. Click next and finish config.

5.       Add another vmxnet3 port to VM follow step 1-4.

6.       Compile dpdk, bind vmxnet3 port to igb_uio and run testpmd: ./x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/app/testpmd -c f -n 4 -- -i
