	If you did not configure network settings during the CentOS Stream Installation, Configure it like follows.
[1]	To set static IP address to the server, Modify settings like follows. ( Replace the interface name [enp1s0] to your own one because it's not the same on any System )

# if you did not set HostName, set it like follows

[root@localhost ~]#

hostnamectl set-hostname dlp.srv.world

# display devices

[root@localhost ~]#

nmcli device

[root@localhost ~]#

nmcli connection modify enp1s0 ipv4.dns 10.0.0.10

# set DNS search base (your domain name)

[root@localhost ~]#

nmcli connection modify enp1s0 ipv4.dns-search srv.world

nmcli connection modify enp1s0 ipv4.method manual

# restart the interface to reload settings

[root@localhost ~]#

nmcli connection down enp1s0; nmcli connection up enp1s0
