Hi All,

I have ovs 2.6.1 with dpdk-stable-16.07.2 ,  I'm trying to create  an af_pa=
cket  vdev interface with the following commands:

    1.    ip tuntap add dev tap1 mode tap

   2.    ovs-vsctl add-port br0 tap1 -- set Interface tap1 type=3Ddpdk \
      options:dpdk-devargs=3Deth_af_packet0,iface=3Dtap1

but I get an error message [could not open network device tap1 - No such de=
vice ]

can you assist  how to set this interface ?

Best Regards
avi
