I don't see those options listed:
root at zaxen01:[~]$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
# Intel Corporation 82566DC Gigabit Network Connection
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
HWADDR=00:1c:c0:75:19:ee
TYPE=Ethernet
IPADDR=196.34.x.x
NETMASK=255.255.255.224
GATEWAY=196.34.x.x

I can't change a switch just for this. The other (Dell + Windows)
servers on the exact same switch doesn't give me this problem.
