Hey Randy, Thanks for the reply.
I tried eth0 and it worked. But probably it does not have anything to do with the name length cos fei0 also does not work. Looks like Linux does not understand any other interface names other than eth.

Just guessing but perhaps the mottsec0 device name is too long. Can you change the name to 4 characters like eth0.
