If your router assigns IP addresses via DHCP, it is better to configure the router to pre-assign IP addresses to certain hostnames.
If you do not have a DHCP server running in your router, you can specify an IP address for a network interface with the ifconfig command. For example:
ifconfig eth0 192.168.20.10

∙ 15y agoLinux servers typically do not have a graphical user interface. Even if the server you are using does have one installed, there are many different graphical environments available for Linux, and different distros have different administration tools. Changing the IP address on Linux from the command line is both simple and nearly universal. All you need to enter is ifconfig eth0 192.168.123.234 You would, of course, substitute eth0 with the name of the network adapter, and 192.168.123.234 with the IP address that you wanted to use.
