Well, Linux has come along way with auto detecting new hardware. If the
nic is on the Hardware Compatibility list for Red Hat, you can simply
add it to the machine and reboot. Kudzu should detect it and ask you if
you want to configure the new device. Once that is done, you are all
set. You can, then, use a tool like Webmin (http://www.webmin.com) to
administrate it. 

Hope this helps..
