Thanks Alex. I had missed the –with-dpdk I am now able to get to the next steps…

I just followed the steps (only thing different is this: ./configure --with-dpdk=$DPDK_BUILD --enable-ssl) and built/ran ovs dpdk successfully Could you make sure that your './vswitchd/ovs-vswitchd' is the one you build with dpdk? (e.g. checking './vswitchd/ovs-vswitchd --version' to confirm the compile time and version number) Thanks, Alex Wang, On Tue, Sep 30, 2014 at 3:56 AM, Vinod, Chegu <chegu_vi...@hp.com<mailto:chegu_vi...@hp.com>> wrote: <re-posting as the earlier message didn’t go thru> Hello, I just git cloned the OVS tree and was trying out the instructions given in INSTALL.DPDK (‘am using DPDK 1.7.0) and ran into this : # ./vswitchd/ovs-vswitchd --dpdk -c 0x1 -n 4 --socket-mem 1024,0 ./vswitchd/ovs-vswitchd: invalid option -- 'n' -- unix:$DB_SOCK --pidfile --detach ./vswitchd/ovs-vswitchd: invalid option -- 'n' Could you please let me know the correction option to use in the above ? I looked around and didn’t find much documentation…so if possible could you please update the INSTALL.DPDK and other documents to reflect the current options to use with dpdk ? Thanks!
