Switch between eth0 and eth1 in debian based system

So I bought a new NIC. Putting two NICs together I was having a little annoying problem as I had to setup mac and IP bindings every time I give a new installation. Sometimes the devices was choosing their sequences randomly. I don’t know what’s the methodology behind choosing in their architecture. But they obviously put a ways to fix it.

To change the detect the ethernet in your way just do a simple editing.

 sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules 

and change the NAME as you want it e.g. eth0 or eth1.

Reboot the machine. That’s it!
