Problem
Although not my strongest subject, I know enough to get by in Linux, so I was a little put out when I tried to run ifconfig, only to be told it could not be found. On an ‘out of the box’ install you are supposed to use ‘ip addr’ instead.
Solution
To Install Ifconfig
1. Run either of the following;
yum provides ifconfig
or
yum whatprovides ifconfig
And you should see a net-tools package.
2. Install the package.
yum install net-tools
3. Now ifconfig should work again.
