Changing Ethernet Interface Name

[ChaseTaulbee]

I apologize if this has already been answered. I haven't been able to find a clear answer how to permanently change an Ethernet interface name in Proxmox. For instance, I would like to change eth0 to bge0. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

check this https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkInterfaceNames#CUSTOM_SCHEMES_USING_.LINK_FILES

Disclaimer: It may cause other issues, if there is a hardcoded interface name somewhere.

Thanks! I'll give this a try.
