Summary
In this chapter, we learned about configuring network interfaces using different approaches, either via manual interaction or via methods that allow us to script or automate the configuration.
Some troubleshooting for network issues was also introduced to help us find some of the basic errors that might occur.
As we mentioned in this chapter's introduction, networking is the basis for our system to reach other services and to provide services to other systems. We also introduced the idea of more complex network setups that fall outside the scope of this RHCSA level, but it's interesting to at least be familiar with the keywords that we'll be using in our career.
In the next chapter, we will cover some important topics related to security such as adding, patching, and managing the software in our systems.
