dolphs 29 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Hi, I added an USB3.0 adapter to my rockpi4a , which results in: " enx000ec667f0a2 " ( eth1 ) Since NetworkManager is being used I tried to update this name using : " nmcli c modify armbian connection.interface-name "eth1" " But alas that does not seem to be picked up while nmconnection config file has been updated: cat /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/armbian.nmconnection [connection] id=armbian uuid=8f61a97c-d0f1-4cb2-be4a-3fe2b4c08e7c type=ethernet interface-name=eth1 <snip snip> Ideally this could be changed in armbian-config, but I realise this is a low-low rockpi-4a:system-connections:# ll total 1.0K -rw------- 1 root root 331 Feb 2 12:12 armbian.nmconnection -rw------- 1 root root 384 Feb 2 11:54 'Wired connection 2.nmconnection' That ideally gets changed to 'Wired connection 1.nmconnection' which I updated manually using " nmcli c modify armbian connection.id 'Wired connection 1' " Idea is eth0 will be used solely for outgoing traffic, while "eth1" will be used for incoming 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dolphs 29 Posted February 3 Author Share Posted February 3 fantastic, thanks for your answer Igor I was already about to mess with " 73-usb-net-by-mac.rules ", but this flag works so much better! Out of the box, flashing image it shows: 2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 86:67:c3:ba:43:ca brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.10.188/24 brd 192.168.10.255 scope global dynamic noprefixroute eth0 valid_lft 14213sec preferred_lft 14213sec inet6 fe80::f791:3c34:96fb:aec3/64 scope link noprefixroute valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 3: eth1: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether 00:0e:c6:67:f0:a2 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff Now remaining to configure static address , routing etc etc. This is my test "system" , so I can configure/ test settings before applying them instantly to my R4S thanks again! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Add the following line to /boot/armbianEnv.txt extraargs=net.ifnames=0 and then reboot... sfx 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
