Rename network interfaces

Current network interface name, e.g.: eno1 Desired network interface name, e.g.: entrunk01

Search for the MAC Address of your network interface

ip addr show dev eno1

Create a file in the SystemD network configuration

touch /etc/systemd/network/01_entrunk01.link

Paste the following lines in the new file:

[Match]
MACAddress=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

[Link]
Name=entrunk01

Replace the “fake” MAC address with the one from step 1
Modify the network configuration

nano /etc/network/interfaces

Replace “eno1” with “entrunk01”.
