Need to configure automatically static IP ADDRESS

Hi,
I am using VMWare and its inbuilted with Linux and Oracle.
I want to use a static IP address for eg. 10.2.2.230 in ifcfg-eth0 under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts so that the static ip can be used in all other machines
But when i am starting the VmWare in another machine the IP which has been set to 10.2.2.230 is not getting set and everytime I had to reconfgure in the other machines
using the parametr IPADDR=10.2.2.230.
Is there any shellscript to set the IPADDR that everytime i need not to reconfigure the IP Address.
Any help will be needful for me

Got two questions for you :
1. What kind of network are you using within your VMWARE environment? Is it bridged, NAT, host only ?
2. In your guest operating system (the vmware image), could it be that eth0 is set to DHCP?
You can check it by executing 'system-config-network' as root. It will take you to the configuration screen of your network.
Can you also paste your /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 here?
Thanks,
EJ

How set configure a static IP address correctly on Actiontec MI 424WR rev F??

I just got a new Verizon/Actiontec replacement router and I want to configure 4 or 5 static IP addresses beginning at 192.168.1.201 and above.
At this point, I have changed the DHCP range from 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.250, to 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.200, so that is now the DHCP pool. That presumably leaves anything above 192.168.1.200 open for static IP assignments.
a) So now how do I create a Static IP reservation for a device? (what router screens should I use? do the device(s) that I want a static IP have to be connected?, etc.)
b) Once I have the static IP address reserved/configured, how can I make the appropriate port forward rule(s) for the devices? Specifically, I want to allow SSH connections to each of the static IP addresses/devices.
(I tried this once but the router complained after I made the first port forwarding rule saying that it was already in use!?!? and I want to avoid this problem again)
Thanks

HELP!!! I need to configure a static IP and I have no idea how that works

So I can't download anything on bittorrent anymore (it just stalls), nor does my new wireless printer print if I am trying to print anything wirelessly (except for a diagnostic report so I know its not a hardware issue). I did some searching and found that I need a static IP to resolve the problem.
I tried following some advice in forums for manually changing the IP from System Preferences > Network, and after doing so my printer started working like a charm (I know this is the resolution!) however, I was not able to connect to the Internet anymore, forcing me to go back to the automatic IP
I'm running on Snow Leopard, a MacBook Pro, and and Airport Express.
PLEASE HELP!!!

The next step is to return to the same page in AirPort Utility as before.
Click the "+" button at the bottom of the DHCP Reservations box.
Type a description of the device, for example "HP Printer"
Click the Reserve by MAC address button
Click Continue
Enter the exact MAC address for the device
IPv4 Address...Choose an IP that is above the normal range of IPs assigned to your computers, etc. You could use 10.0.1.20 for example.
Click Done
Add other devices the same way. The next device would be assigned an IP address of 10.0.1.21 for example, etc.
When you have entered all the devices you need (you don't need to add your computers unless you specifically want to), click Update to save your settings for the Express.
Now power down your entire system. Then start the modem first for a few minutes, then the Express, your computers and devices. You should be good to go.
Post back on your progress and I will give you another tip.

Unable to access internet when static IP address is configured

Hi
I am facing the problem for not getting the internet in AD Server(DC) if configured with static IP address. If we set DHCP it will connect to internet. When I check the IPCONFIG on DHCP settings its showing the external address of the ISP router. Not the
firewall. Suspect there must be a foul play with DNS. Appreceiate your prompt response.
Thanks

Hi
First, Disable ipv6. then run the netsh command to reset IP stuff. Just a warning though,
I think this will only apply to this problem if you are using static IPs.
Here is the netsh comman:
netsh interface ip set address name="Local Area Connection" static xxx.xxx.xxx xxx.xxx.xxx xxx.xxx.xxx

The DNS Server settings are normally provided by whatever router is "upstream" from the AirPort Express, presuming that the Express is configure to use DHCP. What is the "upstream" device? Will the AirPort Express connect to it wirelessly or by Ethernet?

Static ip address 97.82.184.234

Hey, i need help with a static ip address setup on a linksys E1200 wireless router. i want to use the ip address 97.82.184.234. i want to use this address because it was the default address of my minecraft server, but, however, has changed after the router uit working and had to be reset. so now, all of my friends dont know how to connect to my server, and i have no way of contacting them. i cannot use this address for some reason. there are either errors popping up, or i cant access he internet. if you guys could tell me the correct DNS Server, subnet mask, and gateway to use with this ip address, that would be great.
thanks, Josh

Do you have a static IP subscription coming from your ISP? If you do, there is a need to ask your ISP for the correct DNS Server, subnet mask, and gateway that you need to set on the router. But if you just wanted to let your friends’ access your Minecraft server that is connected behind the router, you just need to do port forwarding on the router.
But you need to make sure that the router is properly configured to work with your modem before you can do the port forwarding.

How to set static IPv6 address/gateway in Arch (NOT tunnel)

Hey Everybody,
Today I decided to install Arch Linux. There was only one thing that I did not understand, and that is how to set up a static IPv6 address. I have native IPv6 connectivity at home and in Debian I used to edit /etc/network/interfaces to set up a static IPv6 adress. Since Arch uses rc.conf, what is the syntax to configure a static IPv6 address?
I used to add something like this in Debian in /etc/network/interfaces:
> iface eth0 inet6 static
> address *my static address*
> netmask 64
> gateway *my gateway address*
Or can I still use /etc/network/interfaces in Arch?
Thank you for help.

It can be done quite easily using the netcfg infrastructure.
/usr/lib/network/connections/ipv6static
#!/bin/bash
. /usr/lib/network/network
ipv6static_up() {
load_profile $1

then
ip -6 r a 2000::/3 via ${GATEWAY} dev ${INTERFACE}
fi
ipv6static_down() {
load_profile $1
ip -6 a d ${ADDRESS} dev ${INTERFACE}
if ! [ -z "${GATEWAY}" ]
then
ip -6 r d 2000::/3 via ${GATEWAY} dev ${INTERFACE}

I haven't tested the gateway part, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. You'll need iproute2, and to read up on netcfg (see http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Network_Profiles) if you have trouble.

How to set a static IP address for deskjet 6940dt

I have two HP laptops, both have WIN7, that keep losing the IP address for my 6940dt printer, each time power goes out to router. I have an desktop PC connected to a NetGear router and RCA modem connected to Comcast cable internet. I also have another desktop that connects wirelessly through the router....but this desktop never loses the printer IP address and I can't figure out why it doesn't and my laptops do.
I have had a fellow at the senior center computer club tell me that I need to set a Static IP address to make the laptops connect . I don't know how to do this and I would need someone to explain it in a language that I can understand, like real basic. I have searched the internet but the things I have found have been very complicated to understand.
Can anyone help me?
This question was solved.

Ooops, sorry, I forgot that yours is a wired-only network printer.
You are on the right track - just go to where you were and follow my directions - it all works the same with wired as it does wireless.

Hyper-V Gen 2 Windows Server 2012 R2 VM cannot define static IP address

Hi,
I have setup a physical server with Windows Server 2012 R2. It has only the Hyper-V role installed. The physical server has two NICs that I have teamed with Hyper-V port as the load balancer. I have created 1 VM on this Hyper-V server that is a
Generation 2 VM running Windows Server 2012 R2. It has one NIC in the guest OS that is connected to the Hyper-V switch.
Now the Guest OS works fine and network connectivity is great when using DHCP but when I configure a static IP address in the Guest OS all network connectivity is lost even with correct IP configuration. Is this something to do with a Gen 2 VM?
A little more background - We have another Hyper-V server running Windows Server 2012 R2 with the same NIC teaming in the Host OS, on this Hyper-V there is a GEN 1 Windows Server 2012 R2 that has a static IP configured which is working normally.
Any help is appreciated.

I have resolved the issue. It appeared the hard IP phones were using the same IP range that I was attempting to use so of course the VM could not use the IP Address. Silly mistake.
Elliot, I suggest you mark as Helpful and Answer any responses above that were helpful to you in getting this issue resolved. This is how the forums work.
For example, if a response mentioned "VM generation has no effect on the vNIC." and that pointed you in the direction of troubleshooting networking instead of wasting your time looking into VM generations, that may be considered "Helpful"
If a response mentioned "Make sure you're using valid IPv4 settings" and indeed you ended up having invalid IP settings such as a duplicate IP, this may be considered "Answer"

PS Script to Automate NIC Teaming and Configure Static IP Address based off an Existing Physical NIC

# Retrieve IP Address and Default Gateway from static IP Assigned NIC and assign to variables.
$wmi = Get-WmiObject Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration -Filter "IPEnabled = True" |
Where-Object { $_.IPAddress -match '192\.' }
$IPAddress = $wmi.IpAddress[0]
$DefaultGateway = $wmi.DefaultIPGateway[0]
# Create Lbfo TEAM1, by binding “Ethernet” and “Ethernet 2” NICs.
New-NetLbfoTeam -Name TEAM1 -TeamMembers "Ethernet","Ethernet 2" -TeamingMode Lacp -LoadBalancingAlgorithm TransportPorts -Confirm:$false
# 20 second pause to allow TEAM1 to form and come online.
Start-Sleep -s 20
# Configure static IP Address, Subnet, Default Gateway, DNS Server IPs to newly formed TEAM1 interface.
New-NetIPAddress –InterfaceAlias “TEAM1” –IPAddress $IPAddress –PrefixLength 24 -DefaultGateway $DefaultGateway
Set-DnsClientServerAddress -InterfaceAlias “TEAM1” -ServerAddresses xx.xx.xx.xx, xx.xx.xx.xx
Howdy All!
I was recently presented with the challenge of automating the creation and configuration of a NIC Team on Server 2012 and Server 2012 R2.
Condition:
New Team will use static IP Address of an existing NIC (one of two physical NICs to be used in the Team). Each server has more than one NIC.
Our environment is pretty static, in the sense that all our servers use the same subnet mask and DNS server IP Addresses, so I really only had
to worry about the Static IP Address and the Default Gateway.
1. Retrieve NIC IP Address and Default Gateway:
I needed a way to query only the NIC with the correct IP Address settings and create required variables based on that query. For that, I
leveraged WMI. For example purposes, let's say the servers in your environment start with 192. and you know the source physical NIC with desired network configurations follows this scheme. This will retrieve only the network configuration information
for the NIC that has the IP Address that starts with "192." Feel free to replace 192 with whatever octet you use. you can expand the criteria by filling out additional octects... example:
Where-Object
$_.IPAddress
-match'192\.168.' } This would search for NICs with IP Addresses 192.168.xx.xx.
$wmi
= Get-WmiObject
Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration
-Filter "IPEnabled = True"
|
Where-Object {
$_.IPAddress
-match '192\.' }
$IPAddress
= $wmi.IpAddress[0]
$DefaultGateway
= $wmi.DefaultIPGateway[0]
2. Create Lbfo TEAM1
This is a straight forward command based off of New-NetLbfoTeam. I used "-Confirm:$false" to suppress prompts.
Our NICs are named “Ethernet” and “Ethernet 2” by default, so I was able to keep –TeamMembers as a static entry.
Also added start-sleep command to give the new Team time to build and come online before moving on to network configurations.
New-NetLbfoTeam
-Name TEAM1
-TeamMembers "Ethernet","Ethernet 2"
-TeamingMode SwitchIndependent
-LoadBalancingAlgorithm
Dynamic -Confirm:$false
# 20 second pause to allow TEAM1 to form and come online.
Start-Sleep
-s 20
3. Configure network settings for interface "TEAM1".
Now it's time to pipe the previous physical NICs configurations to the newly built team. Here is where I will leverage
the variables I created earlier.
There are two separate commands used to fully configure network settings,
New-NetIPAddress : Here is where you assign the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway.
Set-DnsClientServerAddress: Here is where you assign any DNS Servers. In my case, I have 2, just replace x's with your
desired DNS IP Addresses.
New-NetIPAddress
–InterfaceAlias “TEAM1”
–IPAddress $IPAddress
–PrefixLength 24
-DefaultGateway $DefaultGateway
Set-DnsClientServerAddress
-InterfaceAlias “TEAM1”
-ServerAddresses xx.xx.xx.xx, xx.xx.xx.xx
Hope this helps and cheers!

I've done this before, and because of that I've run into something you may find valuable.
Namely two challenges:
There are "n" number of adapters in the server.
Adapters with multiple ports should be labeled in order.
MS only supports making a LBFO Team out of "like speed" adapters.
To solve both of these challenges I standardized the name based on link speed for each adapter before creating hte team. Pretty simple really! FIrst I created to variables to store the 10g and 1g adapters. I went ahead and told it to skip
any "hyper-V" ports for obvious reasons, and sorted by MAC address as servers tend to put all thier onboard NICs in sequentially by MAC:
$All10GAdapters = (Get-NetAdapter |where{$_.LinkSpeed -eq "10 Gbps" -and $_.InterfaceDesription -notmatch 'Hyper-V*'}|sort-object MacAddress)
$All1GAdapters = (Get-NetAdapter |where{$_.LinkSpeed -eq "1 Gbps" -and $_.InterfaceDesription -notmatch 'Hyper-V*'}|sort-object MacAddress)
Sweet ... now that I have my adapters I can rename them into something standardized:
$i=0
$All10GAdapters | ForEach-Object {
Rename-NetAdapter -Name $_.Name -NewName "Ethernet_10g_$i"
$i++
$i = 0
$All1GAdapters | ForEach-Object {
Rename-NetAdapter -Name $_.Name -NewName "Ethernet_1g_$i"
$i++
Once that's done Now i can return to your team command but use a wildcard sense I know the standardized name!
New-NetLbfoTeam -Name TEAM1G -TeamMembers Ethernet_1g_* -TeamingMode SwitchIndependent -LoadBalancingAlgorithm Dynamic -Confirm:$false
New-NetLbfoTeam -Name TEAM10G -TeamMembers Ethernet_10g_* -TeamingMode SwitchIndependent -LoadBalancingAlgorithm Dynamic -Confirm:$false

Changing to static IP address to configure wifi ex...

Hi – I need to improve the signal for my wifi (Homehub 2) and according to the BT forums a good option is the TP Link TL-WA701ND. From the guidance given in various places, to configure the booster I need to “configure my PC to a static IP of 198.168.1.100”, connect the TP link via Cat5 and log into the admin page for the booster.
I am an absolute novice at this, so could someone please help – I am using a Windows XP (MCE) PC (the PC I am using is not wifi enabled, but the laptop I use for wifi does not give me suitable admin rights as it is a work laptop). The booster arrives tomorrow so I am checking I can do the necessary configuration in advance.
On my XP PC I have gone to Network Properties/LAN properties and Internet Protocol. At present the radio button “Obtain an IP Address Automatically” is indicated. If I press the “Use the following IP address” radio button, I can see where I input 198.168.1.100, but what do I key for the Subnet Mask / Default Gateway immediately below (if anything) ?
Many thanks

Hi imjolly - that is helpful but still beyond me as I have no understanding of the interaction between ip addresses, subnet masks etc. In the link you kindly provided, Keith says :
For example set the IPV4 network properties on first computer to.
IP address 192.168.1.50
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway 192.168.1.254
DNS Server 192.168.1.254
Does this suggest I can merely used the fixed IP address mentioned in my original post and then copy the Subnet mask / default gateway numbers mentioned above ?
The link to further guidance in Keith's post merely says set the subnet mask etc to what is appropriate for your system - but i don't know what this is or where to find it. Can anyone help ?
Thanks again imjolly

Printer needs static IP address - I think I know what to do, but not sure

I got a new HP 8500A wireless network printer. I have used a US Robotics MAXg wireless router (Model 5461A) for years with zero issues. I have 2 Windows XP PRO computers, and 1 Windows 7 Home Premium. (Plus the Wii, a Kindle, Blu-Ray player, and couple cell phones at various times on the network.)
When I first installed it, the IP address was 192.168.2.9. Today, one of my XP computers couldn't find it, and the IP address had changed to 192.168.2.4. (I have no idea why the other two computers caught the change.) My understanding is that I need to give the printer a static IP address.
My Router status page says that the DHCP server uses a range from .2 to .31.
Therefore, this is what I think I need to do:
In my printer network settings, I need to change from "automatic" to "Manual" with the following values:
IP = 192.168.2.32
Subnet = 255.255.255.0 (from router LAN status page)
Default Gateway = 192.168.2.1 (from router LAN status page)
DNS server = 192.168.2.1 (from router LAN status page)
Alternate DNS server = ?? I have no idea for this one
Then I have to re-install the printer on all three computers with the new static IP, right?
Do I do anything to the router?

You have it right. For ease of input, use the printer's Embedded Web Server (EWS). Type the current IP into a browser from any of the PC's and you will see it. Navigate to the Networking tab, then choose IPv4 on the left (or similar, there are getting to be a lot of variations in the EWS structure).
Leave the second DNS server blank. You should not have to do anything in the router, except perhaps reboot it with its power cord to issue the new IP.
After that you should be able to delete the printer in the PC's control panel and then re-add them.

Static MAC address without configuration

Hello,
i am a german guy, so please excuse my bad english.
I have a question about static MAC addresses on a WS-C3750G-48TS Switch.
I have no static adresses configured on my switch, but see some when execute the "show mac address-table static" command. And i mean not the 0000.0c07.ac01 addresse for HSRP, Spanning-tree or something else, which are forwarded to the CPU, i mean entries like this:
Switch#show MAC address-table interface g2/0/47
 Mac Address Table
Vlan Mac Address Type Ports
 3 1212.1212.1212 STATIC Gi2/0/47
 3 1414.1414.1414 STATIC Gi2/0/47
Total Mac Addresses for this criterion: 2
This entries not configured or dynamicly learned.
I suspected functions like gratitious-arp, but this is only for IP<->MAC translation. Then i have searched functions like gratitious-mac or mac-notification. I have searched for a function with tells the switchport: "Hey, that is my MAC address. There is no need to learn this address dynamicly", but with no luck.
Does anybody can tell me, why these MAC addresses are shown static, and not dynamicly?
Thanks for help.

Hi Thomas,
Are there any port-security related configurations in interface Gi2/0/47? Could you post the running-configuration of this interface in concern, output of show mac-address-table interface Gi2/0/47 and also could you let me know what is connected to this interface?
Thanks,

Configure RRAS with multiple public STATIC IP address

I have Server 2012 Standard edition.  I have two network cards installed.  I have configure my server to be my router aka NAT BOX using Server 2k12 RRAS. We recently added more servers to our internal network. We needed more
Public Static IP address. Currently we had one and then upgrade to 5 with Time Warner. I configure my WAN NIC card on the server with the new Static IP address from TIME WARNER. How do I add the remaining ones to RRAS. THen i can use services tab to add that
static IP address with this port to that internal ip address which happens to be another server.  Currently when I add to the address pool tab couple my PC or servers gets kicked off the internet especially when I add the service
port and the public ip address from the public ip address pool and the internal ip address and the internal port. Anyhow, what i am trying achieve here is NAT the remaining public IP Address to an internal ip
address. Only a certain ports such as SMTP Port, VPN port, pop3 port, HTTP port HTTPS ports.  Can someone help me configure this on RRAS on server 2012

how can i do port forwarding with the address pool of public static IP address. Currently my Server 2012 is my acting router. I have NIC cards on there. One of the NIC is connected to the Cable Modem and the other NIC card is connected to the
switch. How can I use port forwarding with the other remaining public IP address. The reason is I have two exchange server in my internal network. Both can't be using the same ports so I got more public IP addresses. I just want to configure my RRAS
port forward 80, 443, 25, 110, 143 to both exchange server who have an internal ip address. In order to achieve that I need to have two public IP address.
Tell me if there is a solution.

How to Configure a Blackfin Static IP Address

I've read that the Blackfin lwip stack wants a DHCP server to assign it an IPaddress. I've proven that this works for me using a BF537 EZ-Kit.
Now I'd like to configure an application with a static IP address so I can use a crossover cable between a computer and the EZKIT.
I've seen a method to do this in the LWIP User Guide but this seems to apply only to projects built using Visual DSP. Is there a method to set a static IP address from LabVIEW Embedded? The LV "build specifications" properties dialog seems to indicate as such but it doesn't seem to work when I try it. If I disable DHCP my application doesn't work at all.

Try these steps:
1) Disconnect your computer from your network.
2) Connect the crossover cable between your computer and the Blackfin EZ-Kit.
3) Assign a static IP address to your computer. If you don't know how to do this, follow the directions at the following Microsoft Website:
https://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/sag_tcpip_pro_manual...
If you don't know what numbers to fill in while following the directions, use the following settings for your computer.
IP Address: 10.0.0.1
Net Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 10.0.0.254
4) Start LabVIEW and open your project.
5) Configure LWIP to a static IP address. To do this, open the Build Spec dialog in LabVIEW and click on the TCP/IP tab. Enable lwIP and uncheck Use DHCP. Fill in a IP address.
If your computer is setup with the above settings, the following Build Spec Options can be used for LWIP:
IP Address: 10.0.0.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 10.0.0.254
