ip configuration in redhat

ifconfig utility will do that for you.
example foe eth0
this will set ip address and netmask
this will configure your default gateway.
I suggest anyway that you edit your config files directly and set all values there
/etc/sysconfig/network-script/
holds all you interfaces' config files.
So edit the ifcfg-eth0 file to permanently set address and gateway for eth0
Your DNS server settings are instead in the file
/etc/resolv.conf

route add default gw 192.168.1.1this will configure your default gateway.
