considering the Screen shots..  

"remove network interfaces" option is Disabled ( screen shot number 3)

and as per the Discussion

https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/vmware-restores-option-remove-network-interface-grayed-out

it will grey out when it find the same setting is actively being used in the Vcenter to the other VM,since it can not disable those, restore job can not let you to restore the network interaface to aviod the confilicts

" you can make sure by checking if the Source VM is power on and being used same Vcenter"
