I'm not running CentOS 7 with NetworkManager so I could be wrong but, isn't it possible to run DHCP internally in NM or use dhclient? If so, did you really check that nothing has happened there like renewing of the lease? And did you also check on the ethernet link level that it never went down for a short period of time? Such things can happen in certain configurations. Or, could it be that you have some software which interacts with NetworkManager via dbus and therefore the problem happens? Regards, Simon
