Setting up a static Ip on Ubuntu 16 server inside a VMWare Workstation












1














I would like to set up a static IP for my server, however I seem to have made a mistake.



My current /etc/network/interface file is set to the following



auto ens33 
iface ens33 inet static
address 192.168.150.130
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.150.2
dns-nameserver 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4


After the restart the server has no internet connection.

  • Is 192.168.150.0/24 the range of your host network? if so, have you configured the VM in bridged mode?

    I believe it is dns-nameservers; please change it and restart the interface: sudo ifdown ens33 && sudo ifup -v ens33 Look for errors, warnings or other clues.

  • It is configured in NAT starting IP 192.168.150.129 ending ip 192.168.150.254 subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 subnet ip: 192.168.150.0 broadcast address: 192.168.150.255

  • NAT uses your host's internet connection. Ideally you'll need to refer to the NAT dhcp series that is set by VMWare (I'm not sure how that would work as I have not played with). And I'm also not sure what exactly you are trying to achieve there. Are you trying to access the guest VM from host VM or other devices on the network?

Change your network adapter settings to



Custom -> VMnet8 (NAT)



on vm



sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces


and insert



auto ens33 
iface ens33 inet static
address 192.168.150.130
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.150.2
dns-nameservers 192.168.150.2


save it then
