How to change IP address in AlmaLinux

If you are looking for a way to change the IP address in AlmaLinux, you are in luck. Our experts have put together this guide to help you out.

Did you know the process involves modifying the network configuration files? It is an easy process if you have the right instructions to follow.

Let’s take a look at the process step-by-step:

1. First, we have to check the current IP address by running the ip addr or ifconfig command.
2. Next, head to the network configuration file, often found at /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0. Then, open the configuration file with a text editor.
3. After that, locate the line with the current IP address and modify it to the new IP address that we want to use.

   For instance, change IPADDR=192.168.1.100 to IPADDR=192.168.1.212
4. Then, we have to edit the netmask or gateway, by modifying the NETMASK and GATEWAY lines in the configuration file accordingly.
5. Now, it is time to save and exit the configuration file.
6. Finally, restart the networking service by running the systemctl restart network or service network restart command.

After the above steps, we can check the IP address once again to ensure we were successful in changing the IP address in AlmaLinux.
