This can be done with udev rules. The setup might be slightly different over in Fedora land, but on Debian Stable this would be done using each devices mac address in: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules . For example I have:
Code:
# PCI device 0x10ec:0x8167 (r8169) Evo2. |
does anyone has another solution ????
|
please provide a solution for fedora core 12
|
Hi,
Why do you ask for another solution? Is the one using the udev rules pointed out by Evo2 not working for you? Kind regards, Eric |

Evo2. |
Please be advised that Fedora Core 12 may also store Hardware (MAC) address in the ifcfg configuration files that may need to be manually updated on top of this else this may cause issues.

Also don't forget to update your configs in /etc/network/interfaces. Don't want to have the wrong config applied to your nics.
|
I am fairly sure that fedora does not have an /etc/network/interfaces file, this sounds like the network configuration file for Debian, Fedora uses /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ and seperated configuration files.

Gotcha. Been a long time since I worked with Fedora so my memory is a bit spotty.
