Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to
look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many
changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem
may have been fixed with some of the updates.

I'm going to close this bug report as their is nothing else we can do
with this old report in a now unsupported version of Ubuntu.  If you
still have this issue on Ubuntu 14.04 or higher, please do reopen or
report a new bug.

Title:
  System startup delayed waiting for network if any "auto" interfaces
  specified in /etc/network/interfaces

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I want to have some especial configuration done on eth0 when it is
  brought up (setting MTU, configuring what speed to run, etc.), so I
  have added those commands to the "eth0" stanza in
  /etc/network/interfaces. However, upon upgrading to 13.04, this now
  causes the system to pause during boot "waiting for network
  configuration" (NOTE: The network is physically connected and ready to
  operate). Disabling the "eth0" stanza will allow boot to continue
  normally.

  In other words, this hangs the boot for over a minute:

  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet dhcp
  up ethtool -K eth0 gso on
  up ethtool -s eth0 advertise 0x3f
  up ethtool -s  eth0 wol a
  mtu 6000

  Removing that from /etc/network/interfaces allows the boot to
  continue.

  This is a new behavior in 13.04 - 12.10 worked just fine.

  Steps to reproduce:
  Insure the system has a working wired network connection that will be available at boot.
  Add the following to /etc/network/interfaces
   auto eth0
   iface eth0 inet dhcp

  reboot.

  Expected results:
  eth0 brought up during boot with no significant delay
  Actual results:
  Boot delayed over 60 seconds.
