Thanks Ciara for reply
Yea i Assigned dpdkvhost port to a VM using libvirt. Following was the Tag i
used<interface type='vhostuser'> <source type='unix'
path='/var/openvswitch/dpdkvhost0.sock' mode='client'/> <mac
address='52:54:00:3b:83:1a'/> <model type='virtio'/> </interface>This is
what i get in a VM as a result00:07.0 Ethernet Contoller: Red Hat, Inc Virtio
network deviceThis is eth0 interface inside VM.When i "tcpdump -i eth0" in a
VM, i receive no packets, even though my ovs-bridge is receiving packets.
