submit a print out. Step 13 Set up a static IP address for your eth2 interface on any installation
with following guidelines: The IP address should be 192.168.1.9 The netmask should be
255.255.255.0 The gateway should be set to 192.168.1.1 Step 14 The task is complete when all

Solution
Linux network interface names start with ethX. First Ethernet network interface name is eth0,
second is eth1,eth2 and so on.
Login as a root user, use su – command:
$ su –
To list or display more information about network interface type command:
# ifconfig | less
To assign an IP address type following command:
# ifconfig eth2 192.168.1.9 up
To take down network interface type following command:
# ifconfig eth2 down
To configure network card using GUI tool type command:
# redhat-config-network
You can also type command setup and select network configuration from menu:
# setup
If you wish to configure network interface eth2 manually then you need to edit files stored in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ directory. For example here is my sample /etc/sysconfig/network-
scripts/ifcfg-eth2 file for eth2 network interface:
DEVICE=eth2
BOOTPROTO=static
BROADCAST=192.168.1.255
HWADDR=00:0F:EA:91:04:07
IPADDR=192.168.1.9
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.1.1
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
Save your changes and exit the text editor.
Restart the network service type following command
