Rename network interfaces

Current network interface name, e.g.: eno1 Desired network interface name, e.g.: entrunk01

  1. Search for the MAC Address of your network interface
ip addr show dev eno1
  1. Create a file in the SystemD network configuration
touch /etc/systemd/network/01_entrunk01.link
  1. Paste the following lines in the new file:
[Match]
MACAddress=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

[Link]
Name=entrunk01
  1. Replace the “fake” MAC address with the one from step 1

nano /etc/network/interfaces
  1. Replace “eno1” with “entrunk01”.
