You should not use 'PREFIX=...' parameter if you prefer static network
settings
functionality provided by initscripts rather than NM daemon. I believe
is is not honored
by ifup* scripts and is not documented by el6 deployment guide either. Use
'NETMASK=...' instead and then issue the command 'ifup eth0' to bring
your NIC up
and running.
