And the networking change isn’t ENTIRELY on canonical. The dhcp rfc says to use a machine identifier over MAC address when possible.
The hiccup is that when you upgrade 18.04 to 20.04, net plan is there but unconfigured. But they now generate machine ids so any dhcp reservations are broken. And I’m not aware of the override that goes into /etc/networking/interfaces. And if there is one like ClientIdentifier=Mac, it’s not easily documented.
So I had to comment out the interface configs and migrate to netplan manually where I can specify the override.
