If you want to make sure you always get it right which card is which, three ideas: - load the drivers as modules in the 'right' order. Only works if all three interfaces use different drivers. - experiment with the ether= kernel command line (see the Ethernet-HOWTO). I used that one with two identical ISA boards in an i386 box. - use _only_ ifup/ifdown to configure interfaces, i.e. adding all firewall scripts and commands in there. ifup has a way of identifying interfaces by MAC address; see /usr/share/doc/ifupdown/examples/network-interfaces.gz.
