       Predictable network interface names strike again. Removed a 10G NIC from a box and the 100G NIC that was enp27xxxx is now enp26xxx because PCIe enumeration changed

       @azonenberg oof makes it even more fun when you have like 36 container interfaces, some VPN and PPP, multiple nics, multiple WiFi...

       @azonenberg the only truly predictable NIC name is <driver><index>ne2k_isa0, e1000e0, i40e0, forcedeth0, and so on

       @geerlingguy yeah this is a storage cluster node. It had a 10g nic, i added a 100g, once i verified it was good i removed the 10 and then the name of the 100 changed

       @geerlingguy the core router with multiple nics and almost 20 vlans would be much more annoying to renumber

       @azonenberg tbh any permanent interface on my systems gets a udev rule that matches on mac address and gives it a human-readable name (e.g. laptops have wlan0, eth-onboard, and eth-dock)

       @emily i should probably start doing that but for single nic systems it's not a big deal to edit /etc/network/interfaces if i swap it. Just a mild nuisance

       @whitequark TIL that's even a thing. I just use the "normal" interface names for everything.Which seems to break every time a pcie bridge changes state

       @azonenberg How predictable....The situation, not the naming.
