if you have an eth1 interface, then starting the fop2 service will work having an OPTIONS line like you describe. Now, having anything in the OPTIONS line that is not a standard ascii quote (like a typographical quote, or similar) might end up with an invalid shell variable.
Also, if you change the options line, then you have to "start" the service, not reload or ask for status (if the service was stopped from the start).
service fop2 start
Is the command to run.
