RHEL 7.1 was some time ago. RHEL 7 first dropped: 2014 06 10
A better resource (in terms of being specific to Red Hat's
most current approach -- 7.5 dropped in beta: 2018 01 24, and
formally as an update: 2018 04 24) is the documentation they
maintain [I opened a few bugs on it during the beta period
which were promptly and professionally addressed. The net net
is that is was clear that Red Hat and IBM were explicitly
working (sadly in private bugs) on the 7.5 Release Notes in
to correct some detail in RH's documentation presence]
There are some quesions about Red Hat having unwittingly
changed exported headers in kernel-devel with the 'kernel-alt'
package series. Recall the mention by Neale noticed of some
side effects flowing through to python 2, and systemd, as side
effects of last week, (repository closure was broken, more)
and which have delayed the formal ClefOS 7.5 update respin a
bit as the parts for a good installing ISO are sorted out
ClefOS 7.4 is fine
Anyway, back to your question. A more current resource might
be:

Section 22.4 answers your question as to the colon
separated options for 'ip='
