10. quartus

Dell PowerEdge, C Series, and Precision Workstation systems running Linux may be unable to contact a Quartus II licensing server. In the License Setup page of the Options dialog box of the Quartus II software, affected systems have a Network Interface Card (NIC) ID of 000000000000.  While in Archlinux it is better to use interface names that are not used by the kernel as default, e.g.: net0, net1, wifi0, wifi1
# cat /sys/class/net/device_name/address
# vi /etc/udev/rules.d/10-network.rules

SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", ATTR{address}=="aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff", NAME="eth2"
