You add the necessary commands to the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file.

For example, in my case, I want to assign an IP of 192.168.1.98 to my computer, using a netmask of 255.255.255.0 and my router's address is 192.168.1.1

I add the following commands to rc.local
Code:

ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.98 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 up
route add -net default gw 192.168.1.1


You can find the commands specific to your set-up under /etc. The file is called <device>mode, where <device> is your network device. For example: eth0mode or eth1mode or wlan0mode, etc.

My guess is that he did as I suggested. I don't think it requires more explanation.
