Achim, thank you for this clear answer. Actually I achieved that myself trying this or that but could not figure out which of my actions were needed. I added record to the /etc/network/interfaces and restarted network, but it did not change behavior. I tried more with no success. But when I rebooted computer yesterday - it did exactly what I wanted, I just was not sure is it something stable that I (and others) can reproduce or some accidental glitch.
