Do an "ifconfig -a". You probably still have eno1 but it's not
configured (a simple "ifconfig" only shows NICs that are "UP"). The
problem is a lot of motherboards will enumerate the PCI bus before
things on the motherboard, so NM will see the new card first and use it
rather than the motherboard NIC.

If that's the case, make note of all three of the NICs' MAC addresses
from the "ifconfig -a" command. Go into NM and edit whichever profile
is currently active (and tied to the wrong NIC). Go to the "Ethernet"
tab of NM and select the MAC of your eno1 NIC. This will force that
profile to be tied to the eno1 hardware. You'll also need to do manual
profiles for the enpls0f0 and enpls0f1 NICs, and I'd recommend
selecting the MAC addresses for those as well. That way they'll end up
on their private network, the ports actually used are "fixed" and you
won't get as confused.

This is one thing I really dislike about NM.
