Hello,

when I start Centos in my VirtualBox VM, and type ifconfig, several interfaces appear:

- eth1
- lo
- virbr0

How are those interfaces created?

Can I make the IP address associated with eth1 static and, if so, how?

I have created an ifcfg-eth1 file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and defined a static IP address in it, but to no avail.

What is the recommended way to change eth1's IP address?

Many thanks.

Your question concerning specific configuration and use of a particular distro would be better asked at the distros forum.
