That is exactly true. On some nodes eth0 is 1Gig and on others 10Gig
and vice versa. Is that going to be a problem and is there a
workaround? I mean 192.168 is always the 10Gig and 10.0 the 1 Gig but
the correspondence with eth0 vs eth1 is not consistent. I'd have liked
that but couldn't figure out a way to guarantee the order of the eth
interfaces.
