   I'm trying to set up a small network of computers.  2 are running 15.3 and 1 is   
   at 15.1 (yes, it's obsolete just like me).   
      
   All of the computers are working with dynamic IP's via WiFi on wlan0.   
   What I want to add is a network of static IP's via eth0 and a small switch.   
      
   If I change the configuration, via yast, to bring up the eth0 device it shuts   
   down the wlan0 (even though both are defined).   
      
   Seems like I can get either one or the other, but not both.   
      
   Is there a place where I can look to see how this should be configured?   
      
   20 years ago I used to run a smallish network like this at work...servers had   
   their own network via a switch and another card (no WiFi, not secure enough for   
   the environment, we used fiber) to the network where all the desktop machines   
   lived.  Even before that I had a BSD machine with 2 NIC's in it at home.
