Answer Hello Selvan !
The Basic commands are:
ifconfig InterfaceName plumb <-- to configure the interface
ifconfig InterfaceName IpAddress Netmask UP <-- configure the interface with an IP Address and sets the status to up.
route add Gateway <-- to set a static route to your network
configuration files: /etc/hosts
/etc/hostname.InterfaceName ( i.e.: hostname.eth0 )
write your hostname or IP Address in this file, if using hostname you have to add this hostname in /etc/hosts
/etc/defaultrouter
write the ip address of your defaultrout in here
/etc/networks
configure your subnets in this file
/etc/init.d/network <-- start and stop script for your network which is executed at system startup and shutdown
