+	  Biosdevname is a udev helper that looks at various BIOS tables to
+	  figure out what the actual hardware names are for Ethernet ports
+	  and renames the ports accordingly.  This has the advantage of
+	  always referring to the same port regardless of system or
+	  hardware changes that might otherwise alter the typical ethX
+	  naming.
