[PVE-User] Network Interface order in Virtual Machine

...that is what udev does to rename interfaces, right? If this is not an
option for you, then pay attention, that order in which Proxmox web
interface shows ETH's is different that seen by virtual machine. My
example below:

Proxmox:
Ethernet devices	 
 	Model	Bridge	 	MAC address
	virtio	vmbr1		4A:8C:24:02:1B:F4
	virtio	vmbr3		46:49:08:59:B3:78
	virtio	vmbr2		FA:5D:D8:12:5B:6B

Maybe in your installation this is different, but I was unable to
reorder interfaces in web interface. Looking forward to hear your
success story :)
