CentOS 7: ifconfig command not found

So if you do a fresh “minimal” installation of CentOS 7 you might run into this issue when trying to run ifconfig.

bash$: ifconfig: command not found

The problem is that ifconfig is part of the net-tools package which is no longer installed by default on the minimal install.

sudo yum install net-tools
ifconfig

And you’re up and running again!
