Configuring your network connection is hard if you don’t know if you card will be called eth0 or eth1.

A file /etc/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules.optional can be used to tell udev to generate persistent network rules.

It’s very simple:

mv /etc/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules.optional /etc/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules

Reboot your system. A /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file has been generated. Now you can disable the generator:

mv /etc/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules.optional
