<title>Adding default gateway to /etc/sysconfig/network</title>
<para>If a default gateway is required to be setup, the
following command does that:</para>
<para><screen><userinput>cat >> /etc/sysconfig/network << "EOF"</userinput>
GATEWAY=192.168.1.2
GATEWAY_IF=eth0
<userinput>EOF</userinput></screen></para>
<para>GATEWAY and GATEWAY_IF need to be changed to match the network setup.
GATEWAY contains the address of the default gateway, and GATEWAY_IF
contains the network interface through which that default gateway can
be reached.</para>
</sect2>
<sect2>
<title>Creating NIC configuration files</title>
<para>Which interfaces are brought up and down by the ethnet script depends on
the files in the /etc/sysconfig/nic-config directory. This
directory should contain files in the form of ifcfg-x where x is an
identification number (or whatever a user named it).</para>
<para>First the nic-config directory is created by running:</para>
<para><screen><userinput>mkdir /etc/sysconfig/nic-config</userinput></screen></para>
<para>Now, new files are created in that directory containing the following.
The following command creates a sample file ifcfg-eth0:</para>
<para><screen><userinput>cat > /etc/sysconfig/nic-config/ifcfg-eth0 << "EOF"</userinput>
ONBOOT=yes
DEVICE=eth0
IP=192.168.1.1
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
BROADCAST=192.168.1.255
<userinput>EOF</userinput></screen></para>
<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>
