Hi dev-dpdk,

 

I am following a Intel DPDK Step by Step Instruction found here: http://www.slideshare.net/hisaki/intel-dpdk-step-by-step-instructions

My Hello app from the DPDK examples runs fine, but I get the following error when running the l2fwd app:

 

“EAL: Error – exiting with code: 1

Cause: no Ethernet ports – bye”

 

The rte_eth_dev_count() call returns 0, I am using a CentOS 6.3 Virtual Machine on VMWare esxi 5.0 on a Cisco UCS C220 M3 which comes with Xeon E5-2600.  

 

I would really appreciate If you could provide some help to solve this issue.

 

Thank you,

Rui
