My first guess would be that the order of the network interfaces differ between Debian 8 and 9 and that you should try the cable on the other interfaces. In the past (many years ago) it was a known problem that eth0 on the new system used for another interface. I don't know whether this is still the case. It had been some time that I had to build a server. Regards Johann -- Because experiencing your loyal love is better than life itself, my lips will praise you. (Psalm 63:3)
