You can find it in redhat-network-config hardware device bookmark.

Hopefully this will answer your question...
You can assign more then one IP address to a network adapater and this is called an alias. Since you can have more then one alias they are assigned numbers. If eth0 is the network adapter then eth0:0 is the first alias.
