KVM VM Not starting – could not get access to acl tech driver ‘ebiptables’

Issue

KVM VM not starting with the following error when you try to start:

could not get access to acl tech driver 'ebiptables'

There is a nwfilter module for libvirt. If for some reason, it comes up with an issue, the above error would appear. To fix this, you need to update (If any update is available) / reinstall (If no update is available) the following module using Yum:

libvirt-daemon-config-nwfilter

The command would be like the following:

yum update libvirt-daemon-config-nwfilter

That shall fix the issue.
