Entry  Thu Jan 28 10:12:21 2021, Jan, General, debain10: static name for USB device 
When using USB/serial ports for slow control, it is advisable to manually bind a certain device to a certain device name.
This is the procedure:

1. connect the device and check the current assignment:
sudo dmesg
the device might be connected as /dev/ttyUSB0 or similar

2. check the device attributes:
udevadm info --name=/dev/ttyUSB0 --attribute-walk
note unique attributes, e.g., ATTRS{idVendor}=="XXXX" and ATTRS{idProduct}=="YYYY" or ATTRS{serial}=="ZZZZ" and others

3. add a new local rule:
sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules
add the a line as:
ACTION=="add", ATTRS{idVendor}=="XXXX", ATTRS{idProduct}=="YYYY", SYMLINK+="my_device_name"

4. reload the rules:
sudo udevadm trigger

5. check and reset usb:
lsusb
check again your device, look for PRODUCT_ID:VENDOR_ID, then reset:
usbreset PRODUCT_ID:VENDOR_ID

5. verify
udevadm info /dev/ttyUSB0
this should show at the end:
E: DEVLINKS=/dev/my_device_name
and probably some more DEVLINKS in the same line
so
udevadm info /dev/my_device_name
should also work

< ifdown usb_eth0 > & < ifup usb_eth0 >
unload and reload network settings for device "usb_eth0"

< nmap -sn 192.168.0.0/24 >
scan the local network for active hosts
Entry  Wed Jan 27 10:44:45 2021, Jan, General, debian10: USB-ethernet adapter 
Currently we are using 
LINKSYS USB ETHERNET ADAPTER - GIGABIT USB 3.0 (Model-Nr. USB3GIG-EJ)
These work as plug-and-play with debian10. 

To assign a permanent name for the network adapter (e.g. as listed by 'ip a' command) one needs to edit/create
the file 
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules 
and add for each adapter:
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", ATTR{address}=="XX.XX.XX.XX.XX.XX", NAME="usb_eth0"

Then reload the rules with:
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules

The device with the given MAC address will now always be loaded as "usb_eth0".
