change eth0 and eth1 with udev rules

(1/1)

halma:
Hi,

is it correct that i can use /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules to change eth0 to eth1 and eth1 to eth0 or which file is used under TC for doing this ?

Rich:
Hi halma
You could try:

--- Code: ---SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTR{address}=="ab:cd:ef:12:34:56", NAME="eth0"
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTR{address}=="65:43:21:fe:dc:ba", NAME="eth1"
--- End code ---
That was found here:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=140029

The  ATTR{address}==  refers to the network adapters  MAC  address.

curaga:
Try ifrename as well, it's been mentioned here before.

halma:
Hi Rich and Curaga, my qestion was, what is the correct file name/Stage unter TC for doing this ? sorry for my bad english

Rich:
Hi halma
As is often the case there can be multiple ways of doing something under Linux. If you don't want to use  udev  you can try adding
this to your  /opt/bootsync.sh  file:

--- Code: ---# Assign unused names to the network cards
nameif want_eth0 ab:cd:ef:12:34:56
nameif want_eth1 65:43:21:fe:dc:ba

# Assign the desired names to the network cards
nameif eth0 ab:cd:ef:12:34:56
nameif eth1 65:43:21:fe:dc:ba
--- End code ---

If your  opt  directory is not persistent, run a backup and reboot. The  nameif  command is the  busybox  version of  renameif.

If you do try the  udev  way you probably need to ad this to your  /opt/bootsync.sh  file:

--- Code: ---udevadm control --reload-rules
udevadm trigger
--- End code ---
