cp -rp /mnt/cdrom /opt/linuxIC
- As you download and use CentOS Linux, the CentOS Project invites you to be a part of the community as a contributor.There are many ways to contribute to the project, from documentation, QA, and testing to coding changes for SIGs, providing mirroring or hosting, and helping other users.

After the installation of the Integration Services is finished you can update your network settings using VI:
vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
The settings should look something like this. To start typing just click i (insert mode):
DEVICE=”eth0″
BOOTPROTO=static
ONBOOT=”yes”
TYPE=Ethernet
HWADDR=(this is where your MAC address will be. You can check if it is the same as the MAC address assigned to the machine in Hyper-V)
IPADDR=(You will enter your static IP address here)
NETMASK=(Type your network mask here)
GATEWAY=(Your default gateway IP)
DNS1=(Primary DNS Server IP)
DNS2=(Secondary DNS Server IP)

networking=yes
You can save your file by clicking ESC and then entering :wq.
After you set up your IP address you have to bring the interface UP:
ifup eth0
or
ifconfig eth0 (IP) netmask (MASK) up
The last thing you have to do is restart networking:
service network restart
You can enter your DNS servers in the file /etc/resolv.conf. You don’t need to specify them in the ifcfg-eth0 file for your interface.
nameserver (Primary DNS server IP)
nameserver (Secondary DNS server IP)
If you need to add a special route for your network you can add it in a file named /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0
You can add your hostname and gateway in a file named /etc/sysconfig/network like this:
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=(Your hostname)
GATEWAY=(Your Gateway IP)
If you don’t need the firewall on your server you can disable it by using this commands:
Centos 6.5 Server Iso Download Iso
service iptables save
service iptables stop
Centos 7 Server Iso Download
chkconfig iptables off
