###### Procedure
|
|
|
|
1. Sign in as root user
|
|
|
|
2. Open `/etc/network/interfaces` with nano, e.g.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
nano /etc/network/interfaces
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. Ensure something similar to the following exists for the primary adapter:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
allow-hotplug eth0
|
|
iface eth0 inet static
|
|
address 192.168.1.100/24
|
|
gateway 192.168.1.1
|
|
dns-nameservers 192.168.1.1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
!!! info "Note"
|
|
|
|
Substitute `eth0` for the true interface name of the device that will connect you to the LAN
|
|
|
|
* The `/24` is the CIDR format of having a netmask of `255.255.255.0`. The non-CIDR equivalent is:
|
|
|
|
address 192.168.1.100
|
|
netmask 255.255.255.0
|
|
|
|
# .../16 = 255.255.0.0
|
|
# .../21 = 255.255.248.0
|
|
|
|
4. Save and run `systemctl restart networking && ifup eth0`
|
|
|
|
5. Run `ip address` and inspect the output for changes
