Hi there,

I have seen a very old (several years) topic on this issue with no apparent solution: following the bare metal installation, my interface is not changed to eth0 and I lose connectivity.

I have installed everything exactly as the cookbook describes and also I have tried finding a solution myself by adding the following line to a new file: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="XX:yy:XX:yy:XX:yy", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"

Ofcourse the MAC corresponds to the NIC in question.

Has anyone found a solution to this problem yet?

Looking forward, kind regards,

Niels

Use eve cookbook mate..
no other way for...

Actually read my post??

You didnt tell which EVE you trying to install Pro or community

in old days eth0 issue was with NIC drivers and Ubuntu
Step 43.1: OPTIONAL for Broadcom NetExtreme II ethernet drivers in your server. NOT necessary for regular servers. DO NOT reboot EVE before you did Broadcom driver installation below !!

apt install firmware-bnx2x -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-overwrite"

Indeed, sorry for that. It is the community edition, will upgrade to Pro after I feel I will stick with EVE. I have everything up and running, made a typo during installation when configuring grub.

Thanks for the reply, can start learning for my CCNP now.
