Description
System Monitoring & Networking You are currently working as a help desk technician, and your boss just gave you NICs to install on some Linux workstations. There are entirely too many of these NIC cards for you to install and configure on your own, thus your boss has provided you with an assistant. This assistant is pretty sharp, but he has a hard time remembering the exact steps he needs to take to configure the NIC cards. You are to write a set of instructions for configuring the NIC cards. The two commands you need to ensure you include are “ifconfig” and “ifup.” Your instructions will need to include how to ensure the NIC is turned on for the system to recognize it, and how to reconfigure the IP and subnet mask of the device. Be sure to include instructions for BOTH the ifconfig and ifup commands. You may include screen captures in your instructions.
