====== Configure IP Address ======
\\ 
\\ 
In CentOS 6x the IP settings are held in file(s) located in the //**/etc/sysconfig/network-interfaces**// directory, there is one file for each physical interface, they are generally called:
\\ 
\\ 
//**
ifcfg-eth0\\ 
ifcfg-eth1\\ 
ifcfg-eth2\\ 
ifcfg-eth3\\ 
ifcfg-eth4\\ 
ifcfg-eth5\\ 
ifcfg-lo\\ 
**//
\\ 
\\ 
To see exactly what files you have, and what they are called simply do a list
\\ 
        ls /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
\\ 
\\ 
To edit a file enter:
\\ 
        vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eht(0) --- (use the correct eth number for your system)
\\ 
\\ 
Below is an example of a static ip configuration for the first NIC (ifcfg-eth0)
\\ 
\\ 
        DEVICE="eth0"
        BOOTPROTO=none
        IPV6INIT=no
        NM_CONTROLLED=no
        ONBOOT="yes"
        TYPE="Ethernet"
        IPADDR=192.168.27.110
        NETMASK=255.255.255.0
        GATEWAY=192.168.27.254
        PERSISTENT_DHCLIENT=yes
        DHCP_HOSTNAME=h64.envivio.com
