Udev rules. Its not cloudstacks issue but the OS. When the Mac address changes, centos thinks its a new nic and creates a different one. So you end up with eth1 or eth2 instead, which has no configuration.
You need to delete two files in the source you are templating, I don't have them memorized but they should be easy to find online. One is /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net or similar, and the other creates that file, in some other udev dir in /use I think.
