Question

How do I add a floating IP to a CentOS 7 droplet?

I’ve got a CentOS 7 droplet and a floating IP set up for it.

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 has the parameters for the ethernet interface for my anchor IP. How do I determine the settings for ifcfg-eth1 for the floating IP?

Thanks.
