cloudlin down eth1 - set a network interface
Is it possible to set a network interface (like eth0, eth1, ...) to remain down by default while still allowing it to be activated later?I want my eth0 interface to start in the "down" state after booting up. I would like the ability to use ifup eth0 from the command line to enable it when needed.

The file /etc/network/interfaces manages the network interface settings.
To prevent eth0 from starting at boot, simply comment it out by adding a # in front of the line.
Regards
