Hi all,
Long time lurker here...
I am running into an issue with random network hangs, console connections will just idle and need to be refreshed etc.
I checked into the dmesg, and i see these messages over and over, every few seconds:
![1724071913330.png 1724071913330.png](https://forum.proxmox.com/data/attachments/72/72959-cb5caa6d4c9029514ecfdb38f5af3f7e.jpg)
I have checked out some similar threads on reddit and here, with the same messages...most of them say that there are remnants of an old interface named eth0 in their config.
I have checked mine out, and I don't see that so now I am lost as to what to check next.

/etc/network/interfaces contents:
/etc/systemd/networkd.conf contents:
Where else can I look for this phantom interface?
Other information:
System:
In terms of PCIe devices, there is one NIC that is currently unaccounted for, a 2.5GbE single port Realtek I installed in case I wanted to play around with a dedicated connection later on - here is lspci output for the non CPU/PCH devices:
Is it possible it is that Realtek device? How can I see what eth0 is linked to? I don't see it in either ip addr or ifconfig -a. I do see that the numbered list in ip addr skips the number (2), but I'm not sure how to look up what that entry might be? Or if its normal...
ip addr:
Thanks in advance if there is any guidance you can provide!
