Hide Forgot
For Fedora 15, the correct link is as follows: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/15/html/Deployment_Guide/s1-networkscripts-interfaces.html#s2-networkscripts-interfaces-eth0 +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #720081 +++ Description of problem: A very useful feature of the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-eth command is the LINKDELAY parameter that can be added to each NIC's ifcfg-ethX file. This command delays bringing up the NIC for x seconds and successfully provides work-arounds for NICs that need a delay. This feature exists in RHEL 5.x and RHEL 6.x but does not seem to be recorded in the documentation so some users may miss this. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL 5.x, RHEL 6.x I went to this page looking for the feature and found it missing: http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Deployment_Guide/s1-networkscripts-interfaces.html Cheers, --- Additional comment from jhradile on 2011-07-11 10:37:06 EDT --- Many thanks for reporting this!
