Hi I wanted to change the network interface name without using a custom udev rule like 70-persistent-net.rules.
To do that, In Debian 8, I created a network interface hardware config file (/etc/sysconfig/hardware/config-ccw-0.0.xxxx) with the following content: CCWGROUP_CHANS=(0.0.xxxx 0.0.xxxy 0.0.xxxz) QETH_PORTNAME=OSAPORT QETH_PORTNO=0 QETH_OPTIONS=(layer2) INTERFACE_NAME=ethfoo The interface is created and up properly. However the name of the interface remains enccw0.0.xxxx Am I doing it right? obs.: xxxx stands for the device number of my network interface. I would appreciate if someone could take a look at this. Best regards, Raphael Philipe Mendes da Silva.
