Just in passing: The line with netmask 255.255.255.0 can be deleted. It is a deprecated option, as is broadcast. See #912220.
Crikey, it is indeed deprecated. Just removing the line will probably not be a good idea. I guess it can be deleted only when the address line contains the netmask in CIDR notation:
address 192.168.1.10/24
