Debian IP Address Configuration

Check the current IP address with:

1
ip a

The default Debian setup uses DHCP for the IP address. To assign a static IP, edit /etc/network/interfaces:

1
2
3
iface [ifname] inet static
    address 192.168.99.1/24
    gateway 192.168.99.254

Save and restart the networking service to apply the new IP:

1
sudo systemctl restart networking.service
