Hello All,
I am using the mimir linux based package and installed on Linux machine but getting error that for IP address found with eth0 and eno. In my case , network interface is R892 which associate to IP address.
So I have added “instance_interface_names:” in yaml file as well but still failing on it .

I added below line in config.

instance_interface_names:
  - R892 | default = [R892]

My network interface is eno1 and I am getting a similar error:

```

the code should not have hardwired interface names of eth0 and en0 it should check what is available on the server
