This is a sample network interface configuration on Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Fedora Linux with persistent device names across reboots. We are not using Network Manager and all configuration is done manually and statically by editing configuration files. Server is connected to a public network via eth0-public interface, to a private LAN via eth1-private interface and to a iSCSI network via bond0-iscsi interface which is using eth2-iscsi and eth3-iscsi physical interfaces.
