Pavilion (AI PC) Configuration#

What Was Established#

The Pavilion machine uses a USB-based or specific Ethernet interface (enx6c1f7197a66) that occasionally fails to bring the link up automatically on boot.

Current Configuration#

Netplan Configuration#

Ensure /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml is correctly configured with the active interface name and permissions are set to 600.

network:
  version: 2
  ethernets:
    enx6c1f7197a66:
      dhcp4: true

Apply with:

sudo chmod 600 /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml
sudo netplan apply

Boot-time Interface Fix#

If the interface remains DOWN after reboot, use a systemd service to force the link up.
