Fixed In Version: NetworkManager-1.4.0-14.el7_3
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, when the udev helper utility was renaming a networking interface, NetworkManager occasionally confused interfaces due to a race condition. Consequently, NetworkManager assigned wrong MAC addresses. With this update, NetworkManager does not access an interface before udev finishes the renaming, and this problem no longer occurs.
