I was wondering after I upgraded why I couldn't ssh into my workstation. I thought maybe sshd got disabled or firewall changes.
Turns out that my "Client ID" changed after the upgrade and I got a different IP address from my Mikrotik router.
It was VERY long, something like 23 hex numbers but after the upgrade changed to the MAC address with a 1: on the front.
Anyone know why that would have happened?
The other Fedora 30 installs I have are of the "long" variety and I assume I'll have to fix each one in my DHCP server after upgrading.
Thanks, Richard

Does this machine have a bridge defined? Before fedora 31 the bridge used to get the same MAC address as the physical ethernet device connected to it. Now it gets a brand new made up MAC. You can fix it by adding MACADDR="same mac as actual NIC" to the ifcfg-bridge file.

No, it's bone stock as far as networking is concerned...
