[dpdk-users] OVS-DPDK - af_packet vdev configuration - Error

[Avi Cohen (A)]

I  made  upgrade to ovs2.7.0  and dpdk17.02.1
And got  these error msgs  when I run 
     ovs-vsctl add-port br0 tap1 -- set Interface tap1 type=dpdk \
      options:dpdk-devargs=eth_af_packet0,iface=tap1

Can someone tell what is wrong with my cli command ?
Best Regards
