After a reboot (due to BSOD in the Windows host - faulty RAM) the interface name changed from eth0 to eno16777736:
$ ifconfig eno16777736 eno16777736: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.101.129 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.101.255 inet6 fe80::7e13:1a20:5a2a:75b8 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x20<link> ether 00:0c:29:12:0e:9e txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 98 bytes 13331 (13.0 KiB) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 82 bytes 17412 (17.0 KiB) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 device interrupt 19 base 0x2000 Note that the MAC address stayed the same: 00:0c:29:12:0e:9e So I don’t understand at all why the interface changes it’s name.
