I think here is a mistake. You need to remove double quotes arount
VETH_CT_ADDR.

You need smth like this:

#define VETH_CT_ADDR "192.168.87.123/24"
...
	if (libct_net_dev_add_ip_addr(nd, VETH_CT_ADDR))

Here is an example
https://github.com/avagin/libct/blob/veth-test/test/ct_net_veth.c

Thanks,
Andrew
