On the topic. It would be quite interesting how vdev will be (or is)
managing this network interface naming assignment. Do you have any
comment on this, Jude?
vdev uses by default old naming convention but has a file
called /etc/vdev/ifnames.conf where you can set names arbitrarily.
Example ifnames.conf that is auto-generated at compile time
(only covered up my mac addresses)
# Format:
# PERSISTENT_INTERFACE_NAME mac|devpath MATCH_ARGUMENT
# * PERSISTENT_INTERFACE_NAME is the persistent name of the network
interface
# * If the second argument is "mac", then MATCH_ARGUMENT is the
colon-separated MAC address
# * If the second argument is "devpath", then MATCH_ARGUMENT is the
device path to the NIC in sysfs
#
# Example: a wireless USB dongle, to be named "wlan-edimax"
#
# Using the "mac" match:
# wlan-edimax mac 80:1F:02:D3:B2:83
#
# Using the "devpath" match:
# wlan-edimax devpath
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/1-1.1:1.0
eth0 mac XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
wlan0 mac XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
