Activating Devices


Network devices can be configured to activate at boot time or not to start at boot time. For example, a network device for a modem connection is usually not configured to start at boot time, whereas an Ethernet connection is usually configured to activate at boot time. If your network device is configured not to start at boot time, you can use Red Hat Control Network to activate it after boot time. To start it, select Main Menu Button (on the Panel) > System Tools > Network Device Control or type redhat-control-network.
