By default, NixOS uses DHCP (specifically, <command>dhcpcd</command>) to
|
||
automatically configure network interfaces. However, you can configure an
|
||
interface manually as follows:
|
||
<programlisting>
|
||
<link linkend="opt-networking.interfaces._name__.ipv4.addresses">networking.interfaces.eth0.ipv4.addresses</link> = [ {
|
||
address = "192.168.1.2";
|
||
prefixLength = 24;
|
||
} ];
|
||
</programlisting>
|
||
Typically you’ll also want to set a default gateway and set of name
|
||
servers:
|
||
<programlisting>
|
||
<xref linkend="opt-networking.defaultGateway"/> = "192.168.1.1";
|
||
<xref linkend="opt-networking.nameservers"/> = [ "8.8.8.8" ];
|
||
</programlisting>
|
||
</para>
|
||
|
||
<note>
|
||
<para>
|
||
Statically configured interfaces are set up by the systemd service
|
||
<replaceable>interface-name</replaceable><literal>-cfg.service</literal>.
|
||
The default gateway and name server configuration is performed by
|
||
<literal>network-setup.service</literal>.
|
||
</para>
|
||
</note>
|
||
|
||
<para>
|
||
The host name is set using <xref linkend="opt-networking.hostName"/>:
|
||
<programlisting>
|
||
<xref linkend="opt-networking.hostName"/> = "cartman";
|
||
</programlisting>
|
||
The default host name is <literal>nixos</literal>. Set it to the empty string
|
||
(<literal>""</literal>) to allow the DHCP server to provide the host name.
