Hi Nigel,

The new udev device naming schema is a bit daunting at first. I recommend
at least looking over Red Hat's own documentation in regards to this:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Networking_Guide/ch-Consistent_Network_Device_Naming.html

If you want to revert to the old-style naming:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Networking_Guide/sec-Disabling_Consistent_Network_Device_Naming.html

Most modern distros are headed down the systemd-udevd path. I recommend
using the CentOS 7 defaults and renaming via
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules instead of disabling the feature
altogether.

Here's an example for yours. Replace ATTR{address}== with the MAC addresses
of your interfaces. Easiest way to get these to take effect is to reboot.

/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules:
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0",
ATTR{address}=="00:0e:b7:34:10:38", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="enp*",
NAME="eth0"
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0",
ATTR{address}=="00:0e:b7:34:10:39", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="enp*",
NAME="eth1"
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0",
ATTR{address}=="00:0e:b7:34:10:3a", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="enp*",
NAME="eth2"

You can get creative with the naming. For mine, I use 'wan0', 'lan0',
'wifi0', etc.

Hope this helps!
