Your /e/n/interfaces does not match that description...

> address 192.168.10.254
> broadcast 192.168.10.255
> netmask 255.255.255.0

This configures an untagged connection, which is not the same as vlan 1.
Also, there's no need to set that broadcast address manually, it's inferred
from the netmask.

That is most likely wrong. You set a "default interface" by configuring
the default gateway with the lowest metric. Other than that, there's no
"default" between network interfaces.

I would expect you only configure eth1.1 and eth1.2, and leave eth1
itself unconfigured. Or perhaps, if that configuration confuses
ifupdown:
iface eth1 inet manual
up ip link set eth1 up
