1How to set up Static IP Address – Milliways Oct 24 '19 at 22:55

If you are using Raspbian then dhcpcd
is used for network configuration. Just look into /etc/dhcpcd.conf
. At the end you will find some examples for static IP configuration. For further information look at man dhcpcd.conf
. For searching in Google you should use raspbian static ip address.

1How about etc/network/interfaces? I saw in some article about that?! – Thetips4you Oct 24 '19 at 17:18

1Beware that older versions of Raspbian did not use
dhcpcd
, they used Debian's networking system;/etc/network/interfaces
is part of the latter. If you are curious seeman interfaces
-- but do not use it, usedhcpcd.conf
. – goldilocks Oct 24 '19 at 19:24 -
@goldilocks Do you wanted to address Thetips4you? Or do you asked me to update my answer and refer to an unsupported Raspbian version? If there are problems with Debian networking and dhcpcd I like to link to Differences between /etc/dhcpcd.conf and /etc/network/interfaces?. – Ingo Oct 24 '19 at 21:24

Yeah, that last comment was to the OP, and no, I don't think you need to show two different ways to accomplish this if the simpler one (
dhcpcd.conf
) works. Technically that comment (of mine) is a bit wrong in that you can make use of/etc/network
stuff with the current dhcpcd service, but it isn't necessary here and may create unwanted complications. – goldilocks Oct 24 '19 at 22:51
