Red Hat Enterprise 7 is based on CentOS 7 and upstream of kernel 3.10

Ever wanted to change back to the default network device name like „ethX“

This is based on VMware installation i have the default nic name as“ifcfg-enp13s0″

[root@server network-scripts]# cat /etc/default/grub

GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"

Look for this line “GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX” and add the following: “net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0″

Should look like this:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=”rd.lvm.lv=rootvg/usrlv rd.lvm.lv=rootvg/swaplv crashkernel=auto vconsole.keymap=us rd.lvm.lv=rootvg/rootlv vconsole.font=latarcyrheb-sun16 rhgb quiet net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0“

If you didn’t put any names during the installation, you will need to rename the interface files by renaming the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-*.

mv /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp13s0 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
mv /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp15s0 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

run the comand :

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg 

Neprext reboot

[root@server network-scripts]# reboot

After system reboot
