Two ethernet interfaces showing up?

edited March 2012 in General

At my EDIS KVM, I have two ethernet devices (eth0 and eth1). I can't see that this is explained anywhere on their website. I've always just used eth0, and there's no problem, but does anybody know the reason for there being two?

    Does eth1 list an IP address? RX and TX packets or bytes?

    There hardware node might have 2 NICs?

    Nah.

    I'm assuming they have a private LAN option and they just didn't mention it :)

    Neither interface sets the IP address dynamically, so I wouldn't expect that. I've been given one address, and I statically assign it to eth0.

    Francisco's theory sounds plausible.

    Try assign it to eth1 and see what that gives.
