NIC naming scheme
by ddenial from LinuxQuestions.org on (#54BYK)
Hello All
I'm going through this website about NIC naming schemes. In it about Scheme 3, it mentions,
Quote:
My NIC has this name:
Code:$ ip link show
2: enp3s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ffSo, according to this website, My NIC name can be broken down as,
en --- ethernet
p3 --- bus no 3
s0 --- slot no 0
So, how do I verify this? My lspci looks like this:
Code:$ lspci | grep Ethernet
03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 11)Is '03' at beginning of the line is bus no? What about slot no? the next '00'?
Thanks
