Photon Static IP

photon_static_ip.md

Set static IP Photon

  1. List your networking interfaces networkctl. Take note of the device name, for example eth0, eth1
  2. Change directory to change to /etc/systemd/network and list files. You should see a file named 10-dhcp-en.network
  3. Remame file 10-dhcp-en.network.backup. This disables DHCP.
  4. Create a new file 10-static-en.network
    [Match]
    Name=eth0
    [Network]
    Address=192.168.118.20/24
    Gateway=192.168.118.1

Where Name is the device name from step 1, Address is the desired static IP and Gateway is obviously the networks gateway.

  1. Change permissions on the file chmod o+r 10-static-en.network
  2. Reboot

Avoid running systemctl restart systemd-networkd as it can cause issues with photon.
