Network IP configuration

By default, AIBOX-1684X has a dynamic IP set for ethernet port 0, and a static IP set for ethernet port 1. These configurations are implemented through the /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml file in the system.

linaro@aibox-1684x:~$ cat /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml
network:
        version: 2
        renderer: networkd
        ethernets:
                eth0:
                        dhcp4: yes
                        addresses: []
                        optional: yes
                        dhcp-identifier: mac
                eth1:
                        dhcp4: no
                        addresses: [192.168.150.1/24]
                        optional: yes

Users can modify the network configuration by modifying the /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml file, for example:

  • Set ethernet port 0 to a static IP address: Refer to the original setting of eth1 to change node eth0, change parameter dhcp4 to no, and add the IP address to parameter addresses.

  • Set ethernet port 1 to a dynamic IP address: Refer to the original setting of eth0 to change node eth1, change parameter dhcp4 to yes, and remove the IP address in the parameter addresses.

After modifying the ‘/etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml’ file, users can make the Settings take effect immediately by executing the sudo netplan apply command.
