Setup static ip on ubuntu-server #

Using netplan

First checkout your interface name:

$ ip a

Image 2. Now edit your netplan config file:

$ sudo nano /etc/netplan/netplan-config.yaml

Now enter the following:

$ network:  
  version: 2  
  rendered: networkd  
  ethernets:  
    [interface name]:  
      dhcp4: no  
      addresses:   
        - 192.168.1.10/24  
      gateway4: 192.168.1.1  
      nameservers:  
        addresses:   
        - 8.8.8.8  
        - 8.8.4.4  
        - 8.8.4.4

Here we have disabled DHCP and given a local ip with gateway and nameservers.
NOTE: YAML files are highly space sensitive.

After saving the above file:

$ sudo netplan try netplan-config.yaml

This will test the configuration and will ask to revert to default if some error is seen.
