One cause is that /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent.net is missing as happend on this box. You can set them up appriately with the MAC addresses in the order you require. # cat /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="50:e5:49:c8:2e:8c", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0" SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:1c:f0:5b:65:5a", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth1" SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:0e:2e:f1:36:99", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="wlan0" Is it my imagination, or is it the purpose of all these changes to make administration more difficult? I have also been running Linux for several years and never had a problem with NIC ID, at least with up to 3 NICs. In my experience, the ID depends on the slot the NIC is plugged into. According to the above, changing a NIC will require editing a file, to ensure the same ID is used. I agree. After doing an upgrades via zypper dup I noticed there was a change to ens65 or something like that but only on one of 3 boxes. The other 2 boxes still had /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent.net

I shall leave as is for now as I created /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent.net on the one box where it was missing, subsequent updates have not changed it. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...
