Configuring Static IP Addresses With Networkd

To configure a static IP address using the new NetPlan tool, the file should look like this: IPv4 address (192.168.1.2), Gateway (192.168.1.1), DNS Servers (8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4)

Run the commands below to create a new network configuration file

sudo nano /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml

Then configure IPv4 addresses as shown below… take notes of the format the lines are written…

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# For more information, see netplan(5).

     gateway4: 192.168.1.1
     nameservers:
       addresses: [8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4]
