[gentoo-user] No network

[gentoo-user] No network

[German]

So I rebuilt my kernel with r8169 for network NIC and rtl8723be for Wi-fi NIC, however I can't connect to internet. I think the problem here with interfaces, but could be something else, have no clue. I remember when I installed openSuse, it listed my interfaces like "SP0_something" instead of eth0. But I followed gentoo install doc and configured it with eth0.
Can it be that problem lays somewhere here? And how to get the list of interfaces on my machine? Thanks

ifconfig -a lists all interfaces present.

Unless you added net.ifnames=0 to your kernel options, you will be using
the new(ish) predictable network interface names, see

and

Of course I don't have any eth0 interface. What I have are:

enp2s0
lo
sit0
wlp1s0

What I am about to do:
Update my /etc/conf.d/net like so:

config_enp2s0="dhcp"
config_lo="dhcp"
config_sit0="dhcp"
config_wlp1s0="dhcp"

cd /etc/init.d
ln -s net.enp2s0 net.sit0 net.wlp1s0

rm /etc/init.d/net.eth0

rc-update del net.eth0 default

rc-update add net.enp2s0 sit0 wlp1s0 default

Please let me know if you find these steps correct. Thanks

Did you read the links later in my post? They explain this.

you need nothing for lo.

Interfaces in init.d should each be symlinked to net.lo. But if you put
all interfaces in init.d openrc will try to start all of them. Is that
what you really want? If you have both wired and wireless interfaces, it
is usual to use a network manager to control them.

You also do not need to define dhcp for enp2s0, because it will be used by 
default.

You only need this if you intend to set up and use IPv6 through an IPv4 
tunnel.  Most people won't need this.

Now that you're connected, or should I say BEFORE you got connected, you 
should also consider configuring a firewall for your IPv4 (and/or IPv6) 
network.

What package I should use for this on a console? I want something simple but efficient.

I use shorewall. It's not too hard to understand and I haven't seen any 
reports of problems with it.

Also have a look at:  net-firewall/arno-iptables-firewall

It's just a script for iptables, but with an easy to walk through 
configuration file.
