Public bug reported:
During installation of Ubuntu server (18.04 dev) on HP server with two
network interfaces on-board I faced with inconvenience in "Configure the
network" section. Configurator show me next information:
Primary network interface:
eno1: Intel Corporation 82574L Gigabit Network Connection
enp2s0: Intel Corporation 82574L Gigabit Network Connection
I go to use only one interface thus only one of them is connected now. But
which one?
I have Interface 1 and Interface 2 according to marking on server tower.
Interface 1 has a cable plugged in, Interface 2 hasn't.
But in fact enp2s0 is correct choice!! How should I have guessed that enp2s0 is
Interface 1?
It would be very helpful if there was a link status (or cable status) in
front of each network interface. E.g.:
Primary network interface:
eno1: [unplugged]: Intel Corporation 82574L Gigabit Network Connection
enp2s0: [plugged]: Intel Corporation 82574L Gigabit Network Connection
