-There are two places you will need to login when using MFCP, they are:
+Although the MFCP uses Centos as its operating system, the same as the other software products, if you try to manually edit any of the interfaces by navigating to <color #ed1c24>/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts</color> you will not be able to, this is due to the user permissions.
+\\
+\\
+To change the interface addresses (or add and remove interfaces) you have to use a built in tool called <color #ed1c24>nmtui</color>.
+\\
+\\
+To run <color #ed1c24>nmtui</color> correctly you must use elevated privileges. You can do this using either the mfadmin or mfeng users.
+\\
+    sudo nmtui
+\\
+You should see the following interface:
+\\
+\\
+{{:nmtui003.jpg?700|}}
+\\
+\\
+Select <color #ed1c24>Edit a connection</color>
+\\
+\\
+{{:nmtui004.jpg?700|}}
+\\
+\\
+From here you can chose which interface to edit. At the time of writing (Jan 2018) a new unit would show eth1 twice, I deleted both of them and recreated eth1.
+\\
+\\
+Select the interface you wish to edit and press enter.
+\\
+\\
+{{:nmtui005.jpg?700|}}
+\\
+\\
+Make any necessary changes and select <OK>
