The interface name is either eth0 (same as Primary) or eth1 (same as
Secondary). In your case - since you're using both interfaces - you'd
specify eth1. For confirmation, check out
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX, where X is 0 or 1.

However, having said that I'm frankly not sure if the behavior would be
different from using -V <ip>. Worth trying, I suppose.
