To set a static address that persists across reboots:

editor).
2. Add the following lines to the netcfg file (replace angle bracketed items with actual values)
IPADDR=<target_ip_address>
NETMASK=<target_subnet_mask>
GATEWAY=<target_gateway_address>
NETMASK=<target_subnet_mask>
GATEWAY=<target_gateway_address>
3. Write the changes to the file and exit the from the vi editor.
4. Issue the ‘reboot’ command to reset the target for changes to take effect.
