Static requires at least one of ADDR or IPCFG. -ADDR (requires IP of 'static') -: A single IP address to configure a static IP. For example: -GATEWAY (requires IP of 'static') -: Set specified gateway -NETMASK (requires IP of 'static') -: Set specified netmask. Defaults to 24 -ROUTES -: An array of custom routes (<address range> via <gateway>) -IPCFG -: Array of arguments to pass to 'ip'. The power of this options is that it allows both simple and complicated routing configurations, within the framework of netcfg. -IFOPTS (deprecated, requires IP of 'static') -: Arguments to pass to 'ifconfig'. This allows you to use the syntax for the older 'ifconfig' tool. Retained for compatability. -## IPv6 options -IP6 (required for IPv6) -: Either 'dhcp', 'dhcp-noaddr', 'stateless', 'static'. Leave unset to disable IPv6. -ADDR6 (required for IP6=static) -: An array of IPv6 addresses: prefix length may be specified via '1234:bcd::11/64' syntax. -GATEWAY6 (for IP6=static) -: The gateway address for IPv6 routing. -ROUTES6 -: An array of custom routes (<address range> via <gateway>) -### DNS -DNS -: Array of DNS nameservers. Simply specify the IP's of each of the DNS nameservers. -SEARCH -: "search" line for /etc/resolv.conf -DOMAIN -: "domain" line for /etc/resolv.conf -HOSTNAME -: Set the system hostname. Ensure any hostname is correctly referenced in /etc/hosts. -DNS1, DNS2 (deprecated) -: First and second DNS servers for /etc/resolv.conf -### DHCP -DHCP_OPTIONS (ipv4) -: String. Any extra arguments to pass to the dhcp client, presently dhcpcd. -DHCP_TIMEOUT -: Integer. Maximum time to try for a DHCP IP. Default is 10 seconds. -DHCLIENT -: yes/no. Use dhclient instead of dhcpcd. Defaults to no -DHCLIENT_OPTIONS (ipv4) -: String. Extra options to pass to dhclient for IPv4. -DHCLIENT6_OPTIONS (ipv6) -: String. Extra options to pass to dhclient for IPv6. -### 802.11x Authentication -AUTH8021X -: Use 802.11x authentication. Enable with 'yes'. -WPA_CONF (required for an AUTH8021X of 'yes' only) -: Path to wpa_supplicant configuration. Defaults to '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' -WPA_OPTS (optional for an AUTH8021X of 'yes') -: Extra arguments for wpa_supplicant not specified otherwise. Any option here must specify wpa_supplicant driver. Defaults to '-Dwired'. - -## Examples -### Using ADDR and GATEWAY to set static IP and gateway - - IP="static" - ADDR="192.168.1.23" - GATEWAY="192.168.1.1" - -### Using IPCFG to set a static IP and gateway with custom DNS - - IP="static" - IPCFG=("addr add dev eth0 192.168.1.23/24 brd +" "route add default via 192.168.1.1") - DNS=("208.67.222.222" "208.67.220.220") |
