uary/016755.html No, but you can setup your own naming scheme, matching on whatever you see fit, including the MAC address. Say I wanted to name my ethernet device net0, then you could setup something like $ cat /etc/systemd/network/70-net.link [Match] MACAddress=3D00:11:22:33:44:55:66 [Link] Name=3
