Hey! I am a noob at all these things. When I do ifconfig it shows eno1 not eth0. Are those same? Because I am using Ubuntu 16.04. And nothing shows when I do ifconfig | grep "inet addr". And When I ifconfig | grep inet, then some IP address shows up when I try to ssh using a different machine from the different network. It shows me "error :ssh_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer". Can you tell what I am doing wrong?
Eth0 was an old convention and is used when the OS can't determine where the card is.
Eno refers to an interface on the motherboard, with the # representing which interface (for servers with more than 1) there's another set of letters to identify expansion card interfaces, but it's a google search away
This new convention is more in line with how Linux names their storage devices ie: sda, vdb, etc..

I don't know but here are 2 tips:
Use
ipnotifconfig, see how and whyUse
ssh -vvvverbose mode which will tell you more details why it failed.
