I suspect that it has been set up for dhcp, which you (apparently) are not 
using (or have a dhcpd server running).

In /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 you should have something like 
the following.

DEVICE=eth1
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=x.x.x.x
NETMASK=y.y.y.y
ONBOOT=yes

Currently you might find BOOTPROTO is set to dhcp.

I'm not sure where you need to set routes.
