Hi, I have persistent-net.rules in form:
SUBSYSTEM=="net", KERNEL=="eth*" ACTION=="add", ATTR{address}=="40:d8:55:09:43:0f", NAME="eth3" which makes the Ethernet device with the given MAC address known as eth3, so far so good. When trying to add a VLAN using e.g.: ip link add link eth3 name eth3.77 type vlan id 77 this rule matches (because same mac address) and I end up with an interface called e.g. "rename9" (number of course differs). I tried $ udevadm info -a -p /sys/class/net/<dev> to see a difference, but after "ip link set up dev rename9" the only difference I see are ATTR{ifindex}, ATTR{operstate} and ATTR{tx_queue_len} and none of them is suited to be used as matching condition in my udev rule. How to use fixed ethX device names and VLAN devices at the same time? Any hint appreciated!
