As requested, I attach the file /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/eth0. Its contents are also listed below: [ethernet] mac-address=70:5A:B6:3E:C1:8A mac-address-blacklist= [connection] id=eth0 uuid=cb3d5786-f947-44b8-92f7-8471fc94c568 type=ethernet permissions=user:fitzcarraldo:; secondaries= [ipv6] method=ignore dns-search= [ipv4] method=auto dns-search= may-fail=false My current situation is as follows, and no invalid second eth0 connection is created: IPv6 is enabled in aliases.conf IPv6 is disabled in avahi-daemon.conf [ipv6] method=ignore [ipv4] method=auto [ipv4] may-fail=false If I make the situation as follows, no invalid second eth0 connection is created either (which is not surprising given that IPv6 is disabled system-wide): IPv6 is disabled in aliases.conf IPv6 is enabled in avahi-daemon.conf [ipv6] method=ignore [ipv4] method=auto [ipv4] may-fail=true When the situation is as follows an invalid second eth0 connection is usually (i.e. more often than not) created: IPv6 is enabled in aliases.conf IPv6 is enabled in avahi-daemon.conf [ipv6] method=ignore [ipv4] method=auto [ipv4] may-fail=true
