From my side, I have a "no longer supported" SW product that
licenses itself against the MAC address of ETH0. Yep, ETH0 and
not any other name.
Put a symlink in?
OK. Gizza clue: what would the symlink be, where would one insert it, and what effect would it have ? Would, for example, ifconfig or ip recognise the new name and show results using it ? Would one end up with two apparent "interfaces" ?
Yep, a clue would be nice.
I compared /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
with lspci | grep -i eth
and with /dev/.udev/db/net:eth?
and could not see a common thread to tie them together (and hence guess
what to symlink with)
