Hi all,
Having this working configuration

[root at s220 network-scripts]# ls ifcfg-*
ifcfg-Bridge_connection_1  ifcfg-lo  ifcfg-System_em1

[root at s220 network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-Bridge_connection_1
DEVICE=bridge0
STP=yes
BRIDGING_OPTS=priority=128
TYPE=Bridge
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR0=193.x.y.220
PREFIX0=27
GATEWAY0=193.x.y.193
DNS1=193.x.y.254
DOMAIN=a.b.ro
DEFROUTE=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=yes
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
IPV6_DEFROUTE=yes
IPV6_PEERDNS=yes
IPV6_PEERROUTES=yes
IPV6_FAILURE_FATAL=no

[root at s220 network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-System_em1
HWADDR=BC:AE:C5:CD:83:9E

[root at s220 network-scripts]# route

I added a nic card, and now ...

[root at s220 network-scripts]# ls ifcfg-*
ifcfg-Bridge_connection_1  ifcfg-lo  ifcfg-System_em1

[root at s220 network-scripts]# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination  Gateway     Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface

172.18.0.0    0.0.0.0    255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0 p48p1

193.x.y.193   172.18.0.1 255.255.255.255 UGH   1      0        0 p48p1

The question is: 
WHY ifcfg-p48p1 is missing from /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts ?

The Network GUI Tool shows p48p1 interface correctly and manages it.
What do I miss?
I don't find anything useful in the docs
