the ability to modify the IRQs in the BIOS , so I tried Gordon's suggestion to
alter the IRQs assigned to each NIC. Unfortunately, this had no effect on the
NIC detection order with the module I am using (Erich
Hi,
ifrename, iproute2 and udev has capability to rename interface labels.
Years ago I tried to keep interface label consistent with map token in
/etc/network/interfaces on a Debian system. There was an example script
in Debian for it. It worked.
ip command from iproute2 seems to do the trick on
Well, yes and no.
The kernel assigns the numbers sequentially but it is the module that
requests these assignments in the order it finds the NICs. With the
older ISA cards you could enforce this order by specifying several
hardware properties (actually, these were required) but with PCI this is
Hi Merrick,
AFAIK it's the kernel which assigns the NICs to a specific number. Maybe
it's possible to use some sort of userspace tool to reshuffle those
interfaces based on mac-addresses afterwards. But it's non-trivial.
