Issue
I've tried to assign static ip to my raspberry computer, yet it doesn't assign it after rebooting. My /etc/networ/interfaces file looks like this:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
#iface eth0 inet dhcp
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
iface default inet dhcp
After rebooting and using ifconfig command it shows me that the address is different. What should I do to make it assign data from the file?
Solution
It's /etc/network/interfaces not /etc/networ/interfaces and you forgot to add:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
You should do:
/etc/init.d/networking restart
or
ifdown eth0
ifup eth0
Instead of rebooting, Also make sure that 192.168.1.2 isn't used already.
