run ifconfig to find the name of your Interface. Normally these would be eth0, eth1 etc but in my Virtual Environment they are different
cd /etc/network
sudo nano interfaces
Make all changes required, including:
- Change from DHCP to Static
- Add Address, Netmask and Gateway
Write out file using Control + O, Overwrite File and Control-X (to exit)
Restart the network interfaces by:
sudo ifdown ens33 && sudo ifup ens33 (substituting ens33 with your interface)
