 Alteeve Wiki :: How To :: Managing Networks With nmcli

This article shows how to manage a network using just nmcli.

Key to this article, and to EL9 and above OSes, is that the old ifcfg-X files are no longer used. They can be forced, but let's not hold on to the past like that.

Setting a Static IP on an Interface

The most basic step we'll start with is to simple assign a static IP address


Naming and Labelling Interfaces

In previous versions of the Anvil!, we would disable biosdevname and change the actual network interface name to reflect it's role in the Anvil! cluster. This is no longer viable with EL9.
