The problem with naming is that for every server run by experienced sysadmins
"experienced sysadmins" should not have a problem to open "/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules" and define "eth0"
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="3c:d9:2b:65:95:9f", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"
I really want to be able to put any card in any slot and match the label on the cable to the label on the NIC, and have scripts which don't have to be needlessly complex to discover the name of the interface.
nothing has changed here
if you replaced a network card in the past you also had to edit "70-persistent-net.rules" because it became "eth1"
"yum remove biosdevname" and act like all the years before i have in summary around 30 F16 setups with 20 of them as production sevrers and there is no machine not having "eth0"
