The solution from checkpoint support:

This is our new case regarding the interface disorder.

The following is a manually fix, in the future it will be release as a 
script/package.

R65 HFA_40 install changes the interface order (Renumber interfaces)

Symptoms:
R65 HFA_40 install changes the Interface numbering on the gateway. 

Cause:
R65 HFA_40 changes the file: /etc/init.d/kudzu to fix a crossbeam interfaces 
issues. 
With that, there is a problem with how the Interfaces are calculated inside of 
R65 HFA_40

Solution:
In order to resolve the issue, you will have to have access to the following 
files: 

Prior to the HFA_40 install, gather the following information from the Gateway: 
1. /etc/init.d/kudzu
2. /etc/sysconfig/ethtab 

To solve the issue please After the HFA_40 install, change back the file 

/etc/init.d/kudzu from the version HFA_02 and then run the procedure in 
sk31788.

hi,

also seen here. this is known as interface reordering and _can_ 
happen on any linux. this is based on how linux searches for hardware.

there is a file called /etc/sysconfig/ethtab (search the doku for 
details) that allowes manual interfaces ordering.
