Hi folks,
I understand that the predictable nic names can be turned off
using
net.ifnames=0
on the kernel command line, but I wonder if there is a shell
script to actually predict the "enpYsZ" from the old style
"ethX" initially assigned by the kernel? Something like
% predict_nic eth4
enp12s1
There are some recipes I found on the net, but they all appear
questionable or "this_vendor systems only" or work only for
X=0 or look just like some attempt to start yet another flame
war.
Parsing dmesg output seems to be the most stable solution I
found by now.
Every helpful comment is highly appreciated.
Regards
Harri
