I have been trying to create a bridge with openvswitch using the command on
Ubuntu 18.04:

ovs-vsctl add-br br1 --set bridge br1 datapath_type=netdev

but I keep getting this error:

ovs-vsctl: Error detected while setting up 'br0'.  See ovs-vswitchd
log for details.
ovs-vsctl: The default log directory is "/usr/local/var/log/openvswitch".

When I checked logs I found operation not permitted error.

Content from the log file:

2018-09-11T11:10:35.659Z|00255|ofproto_dpif|ERR|failed to open
datapath of type netdev: Operation not permitted
2018-09-11T11:10:35.659Z|00256|ofproto|ERR|failed to open datapath
br1: Operation not permitted
2018-09-11T11:10:35.659Z|00257|bridge|ERR|failed to create bridge br1:
Operation not permitted

I tried changing file/folder permissions allowing everyone to read, write
and execute on the folder, but nothing worked.

Any help in this regard will really be appreciated.

Best Regards,

Ramzah Rehman
