I currently have a Windows 10 machine connected to a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation 6.10 machine by Cat 5 Ethernet cable.
I plug an Ethernet cable from eth2 port on the Linux machine to Ethernet on Windows machine.
I run ifconfig eth2 down on the Linux machine to take down the network connection. The Network Connections window on the Windows Machine show that Ethernet is connected to an Unidentified network. I cannot ping the static ip address for eth2 however.
If I run ifconfig eth2 up on the Linux machine to bring up the network connection Windows shows Ethernet as "Network cable unplugged'. When running ifconfig on the Linux machine the following shows:
eth2 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr __:__:__:__:__:__
inet addr: 192.168.1.11 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

If I ping 192.168.1.11 on the Windows machine I get the message Destination Host Unreachable.
What might be causing this?

You don't specify how you configured your interfaces on both sides.
From your ifconfig on Linux side it appears that you configured it with a static IP 192.168.1.11/24. What about Windows side? Is the interface also configured to have some static IP in the same network? E.g. 192.168.1.12 with netmask 255.255.255.0?
BTW, most modern Ethernet interfaces feature automatic polarity detection, so the need to have a crossover cable is quite rare these days.

There is no point to touch IP configuration until you see link is UP
- Check if cards are blinking
- Try replacing the cable
- Try lowering link speed with duplex change with ethtool (windows:network settings GUI)
ethtool -s eth2 speed 10 duplex half autoneg off

Most likely, you need a cross-over cable - an ethernet cable where the receive terminal from one side connects to the transmit terminal on the other, and vice versa. Or just use a modern hub or switch as an intermediary - most automatically switch the direction automatically. Plug both machines into the hub or switch, and they should be able to communicate from their static IPs just fine.

You must use a Cross-Over cable (Pin 1,2 to 3,6 and visavi).
And don't forget to manualy set up your IP configuration (Gateway is not needed) in the same subnetmask. There is now no DHCP server between.
