I'm trying to get the interface on a multi-homed machine named "internal"
I have ifcfg-internal:
cat ifcfg-internal # Please read /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt # for the documentation of these parameters. TYPE=Ethernet BOOTPROTO=none DEVICE=internal ONBOOT=yes IPADDR=10.10.11.253 PREFIX=24 DEFROUTE=no IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no IPV6INIT=no USERCTL=no HWADDR=50:7b:9d:0b:8a:ab
rebboted, but:
ifconfig enp1s0: flags=4099<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 ether 50:7b:9d:0b:8a:ab txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet)
As I understand, NM scans the ifcfg files for HWADDR's. If there's a match, it names the interface the DEVICE name.
Why not here? sean
