It looks like you're trying to add the second IP on an aliased interface, something that you used to have to do in older releases of CentOS.
In C7, you just add multiple IPs to the interface, no need to use eth0:1 style names.
In the ifcfg-<device>, you can just put in IPADDR1=1.2.3.4 and NETMASK1=255.255.255.0, and PREFIX1=1.2.3.0.
The documentation is in /usr/share/doc/initscripts-9.49.37/sysconfig.txt (part of the initscripts package), which says:
Base items: NAME=<friendly name for users to see> Most important for PPP. Only used in front ends. DEVICE=<name of physical device (except dynamically-allocated PPP devices where it is the "logical name")> IPADDRn= PREFIXn= Network prefix. It is used for all configurations except aliases and ippp devices. It takes precedence over NETMASK when both PREFIX and NETMASK are set. NETMASKn= Subnet mask; just useful for aliases and ippp devices. For all other configurations, use PREFIX instead.
The "n" is expected to be consecutive positive integers starting from 0. It can be omitted if there is only one address being configured.
So, you can have IPADDR0, IPADDR1, IPADDR2, etc.
All of these will configure an IP on the device named in the DEVICE line. No need to have multiple alias interfaces.
