<desc>Using a static IP address can make it easier to provide some network
services from your computer.</desc>
</info>
<title>Create a connection with a fixed IP address</title>
<p>Most networks will automatically assign an <link xref="net-what-is-ip-address">IP address</link> and other details to your
computer when you connect to the network. These details can change
periodically, but you might want to have a fixed IP address for the computer
so you always know what its address is (for example, if it is a file
server).</p> <p>To give your computer a fixed (static) IP address:</p>
<steps>
<item>
<p>Click the <gui>network icon</gui> on the <gui>top bar</gui> and select
<gui>Network Settings</gui>.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Select the network connection from the list (<gui>Wired</gui> or
<gui>Wireless</gui>) and click <gui>Configure</gui>.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Click on the <gui>IPv4 Settings</gui> tab and change the
<gui>Method</gui> to <em>Manual</em>.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>If no connection information is listed in the <gui>Addresses</gui>
list, or if you want to set up a new connection, click
<gui>Add</gui>.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Enter the <em>IP Address</em>, <em>Netmask</em>, and <em>Gateway</em>
information into the appropriate boxes. How you choose these will depend
on your network setup; there are specific rules governing which IP
addresses and netmasks are valid for a given network.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>If necessary, enter a <em>Domain Name Server</em> address into the
<gui>DNS servers</gui> box. This is the IP address of a server which
looks up domain names; most corporate networks and internet providers
have dedicated DNS servers.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Click <gui>Save</gui>. The network connection should now have a fixed
IP address.</p>
</item>
</steps>
