NICs on a virtualization box

[Bob Elzer]

Teaming makes multiple Nic's look like one and increases the bandwidth.

this ifcfg script will assign to ip's to one nic  192.168.1.8   and 10.1.1.8
TYPE=Ethernet
DEVICE=enp6s0
ONBOOT=yes
IPADDR=192.168.1.8
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
DNS1=192.168.1.1
PREFIX=24
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no
NAME="System enp6s0"
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR1=10.1.1.8
PREFIX1=16
NETMASK1=255.255.0.0
