Konfiguracja

Pliki

All dhcpcd configuration can be set in the /etc/dhcpcd.conf file, but for most installations dhcpcd will work out of the box presuming most computers nowadays are behind a router or access point running a DHCP server. Though man 5 dhcpcd.conf will be helpful in case advanced configuration is required.

Static IP addresses

In case the network interface card should be configured with a static IP address, add their data to /etc/dhcpcd.conf. The following is an example of manually adding a static address, routes, and DNS by editing DHCPCD's configuration file using a text editor of choice:

FILE /etc/dhcpcd.conf

static ip_address=192.168.0.10/24
static routers=192.168.0.1
static domain_name_servers=192.168.0.1
