MTU, duplex settings, Wake-on-LAN settings, MAC address, MAC
address assignment policy (randomized, ...).
+ * The configuration of network interface naming rules for
+ "permanent interface names" has changed: a new NamePolicy=
+ setting in the [Link] section of .link files determines the
+ priority of possible naming schemes (onboard, slot, mac,
+ path). The default value of this setting is determined by
+ /usr/lib/net/links/99-default.link. Old
+ 80-net-name-slot.rules udev configuration file has been
+ removed, so local configuration overriding this file should
+ be adapated to override 99-default.link instead.
+
* When the User= switch is used in a unit file, also
initialize $SHELL= based on the user database entry.
