Set static IP

To configure a static IP address on a BliKVM image, you can follow these steps:

v1 v2 v3 version - debian

1. SSH into the BliKVM, If it is a read-only system, please use the rw command to make the system writable.
2. Edit the network interfaces configuration file using the following command:

   sudo vim /etc/dhcpcd.conf
   

3. Within the file, locate the section that starts with "# Example static IP configuration".
4. Uncomment the lines below that section and modify them to set your desired static IP address, gateway, DNS servers, and other network settings. For example:

   interface eth0
   static ip_address=192.168.1.100/24
   static routers=192.168.1.1
   static domain_name_servers=192.168.1.1
   

   Adjust the values according to your network configuration.
5. Save the changes.
6. Restart the BliKVM for the changes to take effect:

   sudo reboot
   

v4 version - armbian

1. SSH into the BliKVM, If it is a read-only system, please use the rw command to make the system writable.
2. Edit the network interfaces configuration file using the following command:

   sudo vim /etc/network/interfaces
   

3. Within the file, locate the section that starts with "# Example static IP configuration".
4. Uncomment the lines below that section and modify them to set your desired static IP address, gateway, DNS servers, and other network settings. For example:

   source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*
   auto eth0
   allow-hotplug eth0
   iface eth0 inet static
   address 192.168.0.100
   netmask 255.255.255.0
   gateway 192.168.0.1
   dns-nameservers 192.168.0.1
   

   Adjust the values according to your network configuration.
5. Save the changes.
6. Restart the BliKVM for the changes to take effect:

   sudo reboot
   

After the reboot, your BliKVM will use the configured static IP address instead of obtaining one dynamically from a DHCP server. Make sure the static IP address you choose is not already assigned to another device on the network and is within the same subnet.
