I just realized some might not understand what a gate ip is or broadcast etc.. So here is a demo example of how you could configure this. Via ssh command line nano /etc/network/interfaces ### Put the following in # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). source /etc/network/interfaces.d/* # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface auto eth0 allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.9.100 netmask 255.255.255.255 broadcast 192.168.9.100 gateway 192.168.9.1 dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 ## Just to be sure gateway is working correctly add the below post-up /sbin/ip route add 192.168.9.1 dev eth0 post-up /sbin/ip route add default via 192.168.9.1 pre-down /sbin/ip route delete 192.168.9.1 dev eth0 pre-down /sbin/ip route delete default via 192.168.9.1 ## End of /etc/network/interfaces For ip’s not on the same network segment often times like in data center environments you will have to do some thing like this. Below is an example keep in mind typically all these ip’s will be public ip’s not private ip’s Via ssh command line nano /etc/network/interfaces ### Put the following in # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). source /etc/network/interfaces.d/* # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface auto eth0 allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.9.100 netmask 255.255.255.255 broadcast 192.168.9.100 gateway 10.0.0.254 dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 ##Use their DNS name servers Trust me! ## Just to be sure gateway is working correctly add the below post-up /sbin/ip route add 10.0.0.254 dev eth0 post-up /sbin/ip route add default via 10.0.0.254 pre-down /sbin/ip route delete 10.0.0.254 dev eth0 pre-down /sbin/ip route delete default via 10.0.0.254 ## End of /etc/network/interfaces Loren Tedford (KC9ZHV) Phone Main: 1+ (631) 686 – 8878 Option 1 Fax: 1-618-551-2755 Email: loren@lorentedford.com Email: KC9ZHV@KC9ZHV.com http://www.lorentedford.com http://www.kc9zhv.com http://forum.kc9zhv.com http://hub.kc9zhv.com http://Ltcraft.net http://voipham.com From: Loren Tedford Sent: Monday, April 9, 2018 7:12 PM To: Users of Asterisk app_rpt Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] Static IP Config Via ssh command line nano /etc/network/interfaces ### Put the following in # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them.

I log on to the Console using root enter the info using the ASL-Menu and save it but the IP remains DHCP. After hitting OK there is a quick flash of some info at the bottom of the screen but its is gone before I can read it. Any suggestions 73 Charlie WB2SNN 27904-27908
