I've not been able to find any documentation that helps. Here's what I've got -- My site is pretty traditional: static IPs, default gateways, and alias addresses. On RHEL6 I'd just use the ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-eth0:0 style of managing it, but in RHEL 7 that doesn't seem to work and I keep getting duplicate interfaces that are configured but not active, the route disappears on reboot, and I can't add and remove aliases as needed without bringing down the entire interface. Does anyone know of a good resource for dealing with NetworkManager for this style of configuration? The RHEL 7 Networking guide isn't terribly helpful because it seems like >90% is wifi, teaming, vpn, bridging, and how to use the gui -- none of which are applicable to my use case (but I do recognize their importance) Between nmcli and firewall-cmd it is almost like I've been sucked back in time to the days when I was an AIX admin where you had to use the tools to maintain active/configured settings and you couldn't just edit the config files.
