Second Static IP

Post by speed »

I would like to have a second static IP on my SBC 4. When I modify /etc/network/interfaces it works fine until the SBC is restarted, then my changes are lost. Where do I make the change so it is permanent?

Disable the web interface, or if you aren't using it you can remove it altogether.

systemctl disable phidgetsbcwebif

-OR-

apt-get remove phidgetsbcwebif

Alternatively - keep the webif and comment out apply_network_config by modifying /etc/init.d/phidgetsbcwebif

The web interface reapplies it's settings during boot to keep things consistent, but this isn't helpful if you want to manage the system yourself.

Just need one static ....
Got to you router and change your dynamic range to 50 to 255
instead of default 1 to 255
DHCP Beginning Address: . 50
DHCP Ending Address: . . .255

Now the first 50 addresses are static

Then go to network set up for phidget sbc in web interface

set up manual static address, dont use 1 thats the router
for example 10.0..0.1 router
10.0.0.2 your phidget sbc

here is my example:
for my phidget sbc3

Adapter eth0 (UP)
Type wired
Mode static
IP Address 10.0.0.8
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
Gateway 10.0.0.1
MAC Address 00:1b:0b:10:28:a9

DNS Server(s) 216.146.35.35
216.145.36.36


DNS server can be found on your computer under network settings


Remember only one static address for one device or you will have a networking problem. you now have 49 choices because router is 1
