Bug Description
Impact: As Microsoft expands its public cloud offering it may need to utilize additional MAC address prefixes. If a user launches a Cloud instance when the MAC address is from a Microsoft-owned MAC address that is not in the exclusion list, eth0 is persistently named for the first NIC seen. If a user rebundles, or the machines has its MAC address changed (e.g. VM resize or VM is moved to another host), it will lose network connectivity.
Fix: Please add the following Microsoft-owned MAC address to the 75-persistent-
00:25:ae Microsoft Corporation
Test Case :
- Launch Hyper-V VM with MAC address with prefix 00:25:ae
- Install updated Udev/systemd
- Delete any existing udev rule
- Reboot and confirm that no new UDEV rule was added

I suppose you at least want this for 14.04 LTS. Do you still need this for 12.04 LTS too, or is 14.04 sufficient?
