Also, in my opinion on a well-managed network if you want a fixed IP

setup.

Aside from the other reasons I mentioned (which I notice Bill Crawford echoed), I'd point out that you still need to statically assign the IP /for the DHCP server/ ;-).

(Yes I know it was said elsewhere NM is supposed to handle static IP's... just pointing out why it *must* be able to do so if you expect to use it to replace the if* scripts.)
