Thank you! Not only for showing how but also explaining what's going on so I can preform the task correctly for my system!! I appreciate this video so much!!!
What is I have /20 at the size of the subnet mask at first from the dynamic IP? Yesterday it was working and today after I restarted my PC it does not work anymore. I assume it's because of the /20? There was subnet mask 20 but the second three numbers changed on reboot, how can that be?
I could succesfully set a static IP on my VMs, but they werent "discovered" by my router. They worked perfectly fine, except for connecting to github. So I debugged, removed static IP and voila. I could push and pull again, ssh to github, etc. Any ideas what that could be? Was somehow my router interfering and wanting to appoint a different IP?
Hi, your the explanations in all your videos are high quality, simple to understand and with examples. I am a new fan and follower of yours 🙂 . This video just saved my day. Thanks a lot.
Sir after setting static ip whenever I am running apt-get update or sudo apt update or to install any package I am getting "Ign1 some error" like that and unable to download or install any package. Please help me
Thanks for the tutorial, it seems that the page you used to pick the example changed a little bit, and I could not found it but just typing the same text and being extra careful with the indents did the trick, thank you!
Good video. Anybody knows how to configure multiple network adapters (like eth1, eth2 etc with diff vlans) in ubuntu 20.04? I have searched a lot but didn't get a clear solution for 20.04
very well explained. much better than a lot of other short videos on this topic that dont cover some important bits. a question: with other devices we generally define the static ip in the router. do i not need to do that in this case and this procedure forces the change on the router, somhow?
i have problem with multipass it does not save configuration when reboot machine . so i try to change with hyper-v console but mulltipass go to disabled, any solution?, nice video
Your safest bet would be confining the address range of the DHCP server, so it doesn’t fully cover the subnet. That’s usually the case by default. Then use addresses outside this range whenever you need a static IP.
@@absprog That's what I do normally. Of course you will loose the connection as soon as you restart the network service. Then try to reconnect with the new address. If everything was correct, you can login. Otherwise go grab a keyboard and monitor :-)
@@absprog No, for my work the network is managed by the IT of my client. But I have to bring up a new server from time to time. But I have some Raspberry Pi servers at home.
You can connect to the ethernet with a static ip, but you need to configure the adapter manually. Add the gateway (might be your router's ip) and the DNS servers (might be Google DNS servers).
Helpful but incomplete and will confuse a beginner like myself. By choosing not to set the gateway the server no longer has access to internet! Luckily I figured out in the end what was wrong...
@@absprog Yes, that would be great, I am using desktop version of ubuntu. And I would like to know if this is the reason, after followed your tutorial and rebooted the desktop ubuntu, I lost connection to internet. Lastly, how do I know if I did successfully assign a static ip to the ubuntu?
