Set up static IP address

You can configure a static IP address for the rescue system in two ways:

To modify the boot parameters during the boot process

  1. At the GRUB menu, select Recover or Automatic Recover item and press ‘e’ to edit boot options.

  2. Append the desired network setting in this format:

    ip=<client-ip>:<srv-ip>:<gw-ip>:<netmask>:<host>:<device>:<autoconf> nameserver=<nameserver>

    For example:

    ip=10.220.83.123::10.220.83.1:255.255.255.0:::off nameserver=10.220.0.10

  3. Enter Ctrl-x or F10 to boot.

To modify the systemd-networkd configuration file

  1. Open the /lib/systemd/network/99-ethernet.network file using vi or nano, and update it as follows:

    [Match]
Type=ether
					
[Network]
Address=<IP address>
Gateway=<Gateway IP address>
DNS=<DNS IP address>

    For example,

    [Match]
Type=ether

    [Network]
Address=10.220.83.123
Gateway=10.220.83.1
DNS=1.1.1

  2. Restart the systemd-networkd service:

    systemctl restart systemd-networkd

Ensure that network settings have been applied correctly using ip a command.
