      ( ) The new test plan is aligned with the epic's acceptance criteria

      Given a system administrator is managing an OVS setup with a DPDK virtio-user PMD, 

      When they try to set or change the MAC address of a tap interface using the command `ovs-vsctl set interface <interface> mac=<MAC address>`, 

      Then, the system should successfully change the MAC address of the specified interface and the new MAC address should be applied. 

      ( ) The test plan/test case pass successfully on all non blocking functions of the feature

      This task is tracking the test case writing activities to cover the feature request described below.

      Initially reported in [FD-3048

       

      Vhost-kernel implementation of DPDK Virtio-user PMD does not implement the (struct virtio_user_backend_ops *)->set_config() callback.

       

      Implementing it would enable to set the tap interface MAC address using the existing tap_set_mac() function.

       

      Changing the MAC address could be tested with OVS as below:

      ovs-vsctl set interface <interface> mac=<MAC address>
