Hi Alessandro, I think default NIC is tightly coupled with default route and default GW. You may have several NICs at your system but only once is used for communication to outside world. If you have several shared networks choose one that is connected to Internet as default. If both connected -- choose any of them.

I'm also a newbie of CS and I'm understanding just now some concepts but... what mean "default" nic? Why in an instance I have a default nic that I can change (if I've more than one nic)? And why, also if I change the default nic, I still can only configure port forwarding on the first nic I configured for my instance? When I configure a port forwarding and I select the instance, a dropdown menu should show the IP address of the instance, but I see only primary? Maybe I'm experiencing a bug?
