Getting started with Edison: Static IP Address

Steps:

• Edit the /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_cli-actions.sh file:
  • Go to line 48 which has a udhcpc command and comment this line out

  if [ "$CMD" = "CONNECTED" ]; then
      kill_daemon udhcpc /var/run/udhcpc-$IFNAME.pid
  #   udhcpc -i $IFNAME -p /var/run/udhcpc-$IFNAME.pid -S
      ifconfig $IFNAME 192.168.200.200 netmask 255.255.255.0
  fi

  • Add two new lines to manually set the IP and the gateway

  if [ "$CMD" = "CONNECTED" ]; then
      kill_daemon udhcpc /var/run/udhcpc-$IFNAME.pid
  #   udhcpc -i $IFNAME -p /var/run/udhcpc-$IFNAME.pid -S
      ifconfig $IFNAME 192.168.200.200 netmask 255.255.255.0
      route add default gw 192.168.200.1
  fi
