Ethernet Port Device Naming

The device naming for the Ethernet interface is reported differently by different interfaces and operating systems. The following table shows the BIOS (physical) and operating system (logical) naming convention for the interface. This naming convention might vary depending on the conventions of your operating system and which devices are installed in the server.

Note -  Naming used by the interfaces might vary from that listed below depending on which devices are installed in the system.
