I have a fresh installation of SELKS(Debian 9) and I configured the network manually, but I can not bring the interface eno1 UP.
I get the error:
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
ifup: failed to bring up eno1
My /etc/network/interface configuration is the following:
source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eno1
iface eno1 inet static
address 192.168.200.32/24
gateway 192.168.200.1
# dns-* options are implemented by the resolvconf package, if installed
dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8
which was auto generated by Debian setup when I clicked configure network manually, at the installer, so I am guessing it is correct.
Also I noticed that the /var/run/network/ifstate file does not include eno1, and that the ifstate.eno1 file is empty:
root@user:/home/user# cat /var/run/network/ifstate
lo=lo
root@user:/home/user# ls /var/run/network/
ifstate ifstate.eno1 ifstate.lo
root@user:/home/user# cat /var/run/network/ifstate.eno1
root@user:/home/user#
Even if I try to enter manually the value eno1=eno1 still the interface can not be brought up.
I tried bringing the interface down and then up, as well as flushing the interface( ip addr flush dev eno1) but the results are the same:
root@user:/home/user# ifdown eno1
ifdown: interface eno1 not configured
root@user:/home/user# ifup -vvv eno1
ifup: configuring interface eno1=eno1 (inet)

Also, here are the outputs of ethtool -i and dmseg:

I tried almost everything suggested here for this topic, but still could not find any answer.
Any help appreciated.
