hi, how do you make this configuration in effect? it tried systemctl restart networkmanager but the service is not found. i tried nmcli networking off and on but this does not take effect also. i did systemctl reboot for this to work. thank you for the advise. btw using nmcli con mod enables me to use nmcli networking off and on to make the changes in effect.

There is many ways to achieve the tasks, remember! In this case, for this question all the commands working in rhel 7 also work in rhel 8. Again, remember, there is many ways to resolve the questions. For example, if you can change the hostanme, you can use the cli (hostnamectl) or modifying directly the archive for that purpose: /etc/hostname. If you can modify the network details, you can use, nmcli (cli for network mannager), nmtui (TUI for network manager) or modify the archives directly. You can choose any of the ways you want!

"nmtui" is easier to remember and can achieve both goals. "nmcli" is also easy but required a bit more of remembering the right order of the commands for exemple

DBrown, why enp0s3? I took the exam and there are two connections, eth0 (active) and enp0s3. I couldn't understand if I had to modify eth0 or add an address to enp0s3. Thanks

hostnamectl without admin privileges is ok. Does the nmcli command also work in this way?
