I took a closer look at /etc/udev/70-something-rules-net and /sys/class/net/eth0/ and all the ATTR (i.e., address, type, dev_id) line up fine. I did not find a "name" file in /sys/class/net/eth0 however, name=eth0 in etc/udev/70-something-rules-net.
Ifconfig alone returns nothing. Ifconfig eth0/1 and lo returns the interface with no tx and rx traffic. And no ip address as set in conf.d/net. Please help guys. Server room is numbing...... N.
