How to set IP Addr for VIMA?

[dsubram]

Hi,

While booting VIMA, I opted for DHCP to pickup address. I would like to reset this and assign a static IP address for the same. How to do this?

You may run:

sudo /usr/bin/system-config-network

Then select the NIC and press <enter>

Tab to the "Use DHCP" field and press <space> to toggle it off.

Set the static IP configuration then tab to the "OK" button

Tab to the "Quit" button and press <space> to exit.

Don't forget to run:

sudo service network restart

I was scratching my head for a while until I figured that one out. The system-config-network utility doesn't restart the network daemon for you apparently...
