Note that in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7,
<application>NetworkManager</application> is started first, and
<filename>/etc/init.d/network</filename> checks with
<application>NetworkManager</application> to avoid tampering with
<application>NetworkManager</application>'s connections.
<application>NetworkManager</application> is intended to be the primary
application using sysconfig configuration files and
<filename>/etc/init.d/network</filename> is intended to be secondary, playing
a fallback role.
