You can save the changes by editing the/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-mgmt1 file
to include the following lines.

IPADDR=x.x.x.x

NETMASK=x.x.x.0

GATEWAY=x.x.x.1

TYPE=ETHERNET

ONBOOT=yes

NOTE
You must reboot the system for these changes to take effect or enter the service network restart
command after making network-related changes.

IP addresses are for illustration purposes only. You can use addresses relevant to your deployment.

Although Linux ifconfig command displays mgmt1, it does not display eth1 to eth3 because they are
not controlled by Linux. Do not perform any IP address configuration on these ports.

access.
