I have a VirtualBox VM running Debian (bookworm) that I'm having trouble setting a static IP address for, and at the same time prevent it from requesting a DHCP address..
I have tried two (2) different methods. The first method is the most prevalent on the internet, but it doesn't seem to persist after a reboot. I have looked at many YouTube videos and websites. When I reboot the VM, it goes right back to the DHCP address that it had before.
I want to set my VM with more than one (1) IP address and here's what I have tried.
METHOD 1 (which does NOT work after reboot)
I want to change this:
to this:
When the VM comes back up, the same DHCP address that was assigned before (192.168.1.171) is still there and active. I can't ping the new address nor can I SSH to the new address. I'm stumped. I hope someone can spot what I'm doing wrong.
METHOD 2 (Which DOES work after reboot, but still retains the old, DHCP address, which I want to get rid of. I found this tutorial here: https://shape.host/resources/how-to-con ... -beginners ).
I welcome your input as to which method is "correct" and/or what I am doing wrong. Also, how do I eliminate the NIC from requesting (and receiving) a DHCP address?
Thank you,
Andy
