To exchange names, you need to use a temporary name and do three
renames. Pretty much like swapping to values using a temporary
variable.
I can't find a way to do that with udev. Please enlighten me.
I use "ip link set" to do that. I am not sure how you would do it
with udev.
Thanks for the reference. But that can't be used after the interface is
up, and my interfaces come up during boot. I think it must be udev or
nothing, and nothing seems to win based on the link I posted previously.
I still think the new naming system is broken /by design/.
I believe you can edit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and add
lines such as:
# Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5754 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTR{address}=="00:1d:09:29:34:03", ATTR{type}=="1", NAME="eth0"
# PCI device 0x8086:0x1079 (e1000)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTR{address}=="00:1b:21:08:0d:1c", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*",
NAME="eth1"
# PCI device 0x8086:0x1079 (e1000)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*",
ATTR{address}=="00:1b:21:08:0d:1d", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*",
NAME="eth2"
Each rule must be on a separate line, blank lines and those starting
with "#" are ignored.
After a reboot, this should cause the NIC with the MAC address
00:1d:09:29:34:03 to be named "eth0", the one with MAC address
00:1b:21:08:0d:1c to be named "eth1" and so on. There are other
attributes you can specify. I use this on F19 and F20.
