* Stable interface names across reboots
* Stable interface names even when hardware is added or removed, i.e. no re-enumeration takes place
* Stable interface names when kernels or drivers are updated/changed
+ * Stable interface names even if you have to replace broken ethernet cards by new ones
* The names are automatically determined without user configuration, they just work
* The interface names are fully predictable, i.e. just by looking at lspci you can figure out what the interface is going to be called
* Fully stateless operation, changing the hardware configuration will not result in changes in /etc
