So you're going to further elaborate on your total ignorance by quoting Wikipedia to me now are you?
OK riddle me this Batman if an Ethernet adapter isn't a peripheral then how come I have this file?
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
Which contains the following text in it:
# PCI device 0x10b7:0x9055 (3c59x)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="00:50:da:c2:72:a5", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"
Keep digging yourself in deeper rube. I've forgotten more than you'll ever know!
