The instructions for setting up boot-time DHCP vary dramatically
by distribution, so you may want to refer to your particular

version’s documentation.

pick distinct Ethernet identifiers for each (eth0, eth1, eth2,

etc.). If you select an identifier other than eth0 for your
ADSL modem, use that identifier throughout.

that it contains the following three lines:

DEVICE=eth0

ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=dhcp

If you want to use a static IP address—for example, if you were
setting up a virtual server (page 23) or a DMZ (page 26)—you
would edit or create /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

so that it contains the following lines:

DEVICE=eth0

ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=static
