Consistent Network Device Naming
For some Linux distributions like Ubuntu or Debian since some versions, the default naming for network devices is using the new nomenclature which is causing errors while using airgeddon
.
How to know if I am affected?
If you see your wireless card named as wlx00c0ca9208dc or any similar name, yeah you are affected and probably you'll face some issues using airgeddon
while changing mode of your card. It's better to have them using the classic naming style (wlan0, wlan1, etc.).
How to change them to the classic names style?
To do that you must modify grub configuration. You should modify your /etc/default/grub
file in order to add this net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0
to your GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX
line.
For example:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0"
-
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="find_preseed=/preseed.cfg auto noprompt priority=critical locale=en_US net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0"
.
Just add net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0
to your existing options keeping what you already have there.
After modifying the file, execute grub-update
and then reboot. After that, your wireless interface cards will be named again as always (wlan0, wlan1, etc.) and you'll be able to make them work with airgeddon
.
