how to make mii-tool change persistent?

Hi, I have 2 linux boxes runing RedHat7.3. I am trying to change
ethernet card duplex mode with mii-tool. Both machines can be changed
successfully. But after the change and I restart network or reboot, one
machine keep the new mode and the other go back to old mode. I cannot
figure out how it comes two different results? My question is that how
can I make the new change persistent and survive network restart and
reboot? Is there configuration file I should change?

Thanks for your answer!

Assuming eth0, you could append the mii-tool command to
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-eth0

If that file dosen't exist, create it with a first line
#! /bin/bash
