To configure an ip address use the command

ifconfig eth0 <ip addresss> netmask <..............> up

Please note:
eth0 is the network card name, it could be hme0. read the man ifconfig for more details

eg
myhostname 171.56.37.6

To configure the DNS
edit /etc/resolv.conf

To update defaultdomain
edit /etc/defaultdomain

To add router use the command

route add 0 [routers ip address]
