Setting a ip

You can use the ip command to show and edit the ip configuration. The ip command supports the following sub-commands:

  • address <ip>: Set the address field of a nic
  • subnet <ip>: Set the subnet field of a nic
  • gateway <ip>: Set the gateway field of a nic
  • dns <ip>: Set the dns field of a nic
  • show: Show the current configuration of a nic

You can use the -i <nic> flag to set the target nic. The default target nic is nic0.

Example configuration:

ip address 10.0.2.100
ip subnet 255.255.255.0
ip gateway 10.0.2.2
ip dns 8.8.8.8
ip show

Using DHCP

You can use the dhcp command to automatically configure an ip address. You can use the -i <nic> flag to set the target nic. The default target nic is nic0. You can use the -n <hostname> to set the hostname. The default hostname is MicroOS

IEEE802.1Q VLANS

You can create VLAN interfaces if you pass the following parameter to the kernel: --vlan=<vlanid>.<parent_nic>[,<vlanid>.<parent_nic>...]

Testing internet access

You can test the internet access using date -n. This will test the dns and ip settings.
