Re: [Devil-linux-develop] Enable "nameif" to associate MAC address with correct interface name

[Serge L. <fi...@in...>]

Hi guys,

DL system has been retired recently and I found that the problem with
MAC-interface name association was solved a bit differently. Probably I missed
something  - in this case I'm sorry in advance.

The solution is based on udev rule (70-persistent-net.rules). The file below is
a simple concatenation of 70-persistent-net.rules from 3 different DL systems,
and I was able to copy configuration tarball between systems without problem
with network interface renaming. Is it the same what you wish to get?


# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
# This file was automatically generated by the /lib/udev/write_net_rules
# program, run by the persistent-net-generator.rules rules file.
#
# You can modify it, as long as you keep each rule on a single
# line, and change only the value of the NAME= key.

# PCI device 0x10ec:0x8169 (r8169)

ATTR{address}=="00:14:d1:16:ab:c5", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"
