veth_setup.sh not working on docker container

[lukewen427]

I have followed the steps of the readme, running the example in both VM and docker container. However, veth_setup.sh was not working on docker container.

I don't think there is anything preventing you from running veth_setup.sh in a docker image. If the interfaces are not getting created, I encourage you to look at the output of the script as there should be an error somewhere. If you need help, feel free to paste the output here.

Your docker is not allowed to create veth interfaces. A google research for "RTNETLINK answers: Operation not permitted" gives this as the first result: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27708376/why-am-i-getting-an-rtnetlink-operation-not-permitted-when-using-pipework-with-d
