Hi Tobias, Can you try using the following ?
ovs-vsctl add-port br-mlx enp59s0d1 -- set Interface enp59s0d1 type=dpdk options:dpdk-devargs=mlx4_0 if it didn't work can you send the OVS-DPDK init log ?

I have tried restarting the openvswitch services after adding the interfaces as well but no difference. The logs doesn't say anything interesting from what I can see :( Best regards
