Feature Request: Naming Network Adapters

[gawad1234]

Hello!

Is there a way that it could be changed so that you can change the name of the virtuial network adapter? Once you change it currently it is breaking the vlan adapters.

Hi, and thanks for reporting this!

Short answer: the adapter name isn't user-configurable at the moment, and that's exactly why renaming it breaks the VLAN adapters.

DMXRouter identifies the virtual adapter by its name in order to enforce the VLAN isolation safely, and that name is referenced in a lot of places across the codebase. So once you rename the adapter, DMXRouter can no longer find it and the isolation binding breaks.

Making the name freely configurable is a bigger change than it looks, precisely because of how many places rely on it, so it isn't something I'm planning for the near term — but I appreciate the suggestion.
