Setting static IP for VM

Hi,

I have setup a virtual machine in VMWare Workstation Player 15 Player, and the OS in it is CentOS 7.

The problem I face now is that I am using home wifi for the Internet connection, and the BOOTPROTO is dhcp.

Is it possible to set or use a permanent/static IP address for the VM? If so pls advise the steps to do so.

This is important because I am setting up a website, and need the IP to be stable, instead of always changing.

Thx,

ana

You can very easily use Google. This is not a VMware-related issue/question.
