You have made two mistakes. 1. dhcpd service assigns IP addresses to the clients, and does not request a lease for the server it is running on. What you should get rid of is the dhcpcd service. 2. IP address assigned via ifconfig will not survive across reboots. Use redhat-config-network to assign IP address.
