Presumably that has to be caused by the hardware or the firmware, which sounds decidedly flaky, and something the OS can do nothing about, except work around it. As for that, I would have thought that's pretty easy: you just set an environment variable with the name of the interface in it, and use firejail --net="$Mywiredifname" … All my systems define that very variable, not because I have issues with the OS's choice, but so that I can use the same script to scp through the IPv6 link address to whatever machine is on the other end of the wire (yes, I know, it's a cheat). Cheers, David.
