Updating IP Address​

warning

DHCP is support but not recommended, because if/when the address changes a script needs to be run to update the software.

  1. SSH into the server, the default IP address is 192.168.1.23

    ssh nvme@<ip address>

  2. Edit the netplan file for the desired IP address. For more information see Netplan Examples.

    sudo nano /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml

    When completed press CTL + x and press Enter.

  3. Apply the changes to update the IP address configurations.

    sudo netplan apply

  4. Verify the new IP address.

    ip a

    In the below example the IP address was changed to 10.0.129.60

    1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
        link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
        inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
            valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
        inet6 ::1/128 scope host
            valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    2: eno1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 7c:c2:55:88:11:bc brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
        inet 10.0.129.60/22 brd 10.0.131.255 scope global eno1
            valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
        inet6 fe80::7ec2:55ff:fe88:11bc/64 scope link
            valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    3: eno2: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 7c:c2:55:88:11:bd brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    4: docker0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state DOWN group default
        link/ether 02:42:f2:6c:31:16 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
        inet 172.17.0.1/16 brd 172.17.255.255 scope global docker0
            valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
