Hidden Ghost Network Driver on VM running over XenServer

When the network interface is removed or VLAN is changed this can create ghost network driver. When you try to IP the nic it will throw error message "Multiple Default Gateways are intended to provide redundancy ". These are common with VM's running on different hypervisor . 

This can be removed by setting nonpresent devices to show. Run exactly as shown belowimage

Check "Show hidden devices" and this will show all the ghost nic driver . Uninstall and  reboot the VM
