Manual Configuration
Network information is kept in:
/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0
A file set up to obtain the network information from DHCP has the following look:
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes
The ifcfg-eth0 file configured to obtain the network information statically is as follows:
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
IPADDR=<number>
NETMASK=<number>
GATEWAY=<number>
TYPE=Ethernet
NETWORK=<number>
BROADCAST=<number>
Once the files have been updated, run SuSEconfig to configure the system.
