Can't create Cloud type network

Installed EVE on baremedel, below is my /etc/network/interfaces file content:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
iface eth0 inet manual
auto pnet0
iface pnet0 inet manual
address 192.168.23.9
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway
dns-domain jinz.com
dns-nameservers 223.5.5.5 223.6.6.6
bridge_ports eth0
bridge_stp off

# Cloud devices
iface eth1 inet manual
auto pnet1
iface pnet1 inet manual
bridge_ports eth1
bridge_stp off

==========================
But I can't add a network with pnet type, there's only "bridge" type when "ADD A NEW NETWORK".
Could someone help? I would like to connect EVE node to physical device.

Thank you guys, I managed to resolve this issue yesterday. Here is the root casue:

My primay interface has a empty value of gateway.

Here is the share of the process I fixed this issue:
1. Used command "brctl show", found no pnet in the list;
2. Used command "ifup pnet0", trying to bring up the bridge. But error message shows something like "Not able to read interfaces file, due to 14th line..."
3. Re-checked my intefaces file /etc/network/interfaces, found the gateway value is empty, so I simple deleted it;
4. "ifup pnet0" now can bring up the bridge;
5. Go to EVE UI, now the Management(Cloud0) shows up.

Hopes this helps those who got the same issue as me.

Here is 2 great articles that helps me identify the issue;
