I cheated; I use NIC teaming, and before starting networking, run a script that iterates over NICs, picking up their current device names, and scripting the if-cfg* files. I had to do this when a few years ago, Dell was getting clever about renaming NICs aggressively, and nothing could trust 'eth0' anymore. Now, I always get a 'bond0'. (Oh, and I also disabled NetworkManager, because, like systemd, it tries to be Too Clever for it's own good.) Overkill for most, I admit, but it make my installation media much more portable. -- Brian Reichert <reich...@numachi.com> BSD admin/developer at large _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
