In OPS235, you learned how to configure a virtual private network via graphical applications for the '''centos1''' and '''centos2''' machines. In the previous lab, you have created and cloned VMs that are text-based only ('''like centos3'''). All of the virtual machines will be text-based (just like centos3 in OPS235) for this course. All of the services that we are configuring in this course require a working network connection; therefore, it is very important that you know how to set (preferable configure) a static IP address, default gateway, as well as your DNS server from the command line.
This lab is a <u>review</u> of the material from labs 6 ( [http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/OPS235_Lab_6_-_CentOS7#Part_4:_Configuring_VM_Network_Setup_via_Command_Line_.28centos3.29 CLI Network Configuration] ), but will also show other commands in the process.
Moving the objective statement to match the common formatting.

=== Online Resources===
Remember how you set up the network interfaces in your virtual machines in OPS235? You're expected to know that ''"inside-out"'' by now.
=== Checking Your Current Network Settings ===
In OPS235 have used the deprecated '''ifconfig''' and '''route''' commands. In this course we'll use the '''ip''' command instead (you're welcome to use may be familiar with the old commands but you're expected to know the new ones as well).
