How can you save device settings to a configuration file?

What will be an ideal response?


All device configuration changes you make with ip are lost when the system is rebooted. To restore the device configuration automatically when the system is started, the settings need to be saved in configuration files.
The configuration files for network devices are located in the /etc/sysconfig/network/ directory. If the network devices are set up with YaST, one configuration file is created for every device. For Ethernet devices, the filenames consist of ifcfg- and then the name of the device., such as ifcfg-eth0.
It is recommended to set up a device with YaST first and make changes in the configuration file. Setting up a device from scratch is a complex task, because the hardware driver would also need to be configured manually.
