-<para>Which interfaces are brought up and down by the ethnet script depends on

|
|
-the files in the /etc/sysconfig/nic-config directory. This

|
|
|
-identification number (or whatever a user named it).</para>
|
|

-
|

|
-<para><screen><userinput>mkdir /etc/sysconfig/nic-config</userinput></screen></para>
|

-The following command creates a sample file ifcfg-eth0:</para>

-<para><screen><userinput>cat > /etc/sysconfig/nic-config/ifcfg-eth0 << "EOF"</userinput>

|
|
|
-<para>Of course, the values of those four variables have to be changed
|
|
|
-in every file to
|
|
|
-match the proper setup. Usually NETMASK and BROADCAST will remain the
|
|
|
-same, just the DEVICE and IP variables will change per network interface. If
|
|
|
-the ONBOOT variable is set to yes, the ethnet script will bring it up
|
|
|
-during boot up of the system. If set to anything else but yes it will be
|
|
|
-ignored by the ethnet script and thus not brought up.</para>
