If you're running a gui then type 'neat' to bring up the network
utility. If running command line, then type 'setup' and select
network configuration.

Or...

Just edit the files necessary to change them. The files are
/etc/sysconfig/network and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethx
(where 'x' is the device #)

 
[mthomas@reagan sysconfig]$ pwd
/etc/sysconfig
[mthomas@reagan sysconfig]$ cat network
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=reagan.foo.bar.com
GATEWAY=192.30.51.1

and ...

[mthomas@reagan network-scripts]$ pwd
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
[mthomas@reagan network-scripts]$ cat ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
HWADDR=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
IPADDR=192.30.51.72
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
