Change the name of the interface in Ubuntu

I really hate the way Ubuntu names the interfaces. To someone who only clicks – it might not matter, but for someone like me, who lives by the ideal “Real men don’t click” – it’s utter garbage. So I found the solution here.

Edit your /etc/default/grub changing the line from

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

to

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0"

to

and, finally:

$ sudo update-grub

and reboot your system
