The thing is there should be an eth1 interface set up.
In the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules you can setup the
association of interface name an MAC address.
Instead I get two virtual interfaces eth3 and eth3:avah.
The basic information for eth3 is correct but I don't
want the eth3:avah interface or the 169.x.x.x network.
It's the first time I've seen it. Is it dhcp, wireless,
or IPv6? More importantly, how do I get rid of it. You
can see what I want from the /etc/network/interfaces file
below and the output from ifconfig -a and route -n.
The 169.254.0.0 network is the socalled link-local network. It is used for
automatic generation of IP addresses so clients can connect without DHCP.
See <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeroconf> for a bit more information.
The Adresses of this network are not routed on the internet. Therefore it
usually doesn't hurt to have the virtual interface eth3:avah. If you
really want to get rid of it, uninstall package avahi-daemon (i think,
maybe other packages with avahi in the name).
BTW: I think it is a bit strange that all 3 interfaces are on the same
network and have the same gateway. I'm not sure if that could work.
