I was trying to create a new instance of a network interface to set DNS Server configuration on it. When I run this command:

ip link set enp1s0 name ens33 && ip link set ens33 up

then terminal will give me this message:

set the interface down before renaming , Try below

ip link set down enp1s0 && ip link set enp1s0 name ens33 && ip link set up ens33

Now if config will show interface with name ens33

Try turning off your networking settings

nmcli networking off
