Yeah, I wasn't saying anything because I couldn't remember. I think Debian puts it there. Try the interfaces man page.
There's also a route command. Maybe iproute too. Something like route add 192.168.43.1 gw (or gateway or default instead of gw). On a command line. There's a routing table, and a way to show what's in it and clear it. See the route man page. DHCP takes care of that so I forgot. I used to have to change my laptop over everytime I took it somewhere with DHCP and change it back when I got home. But that was OpenBSD too. And 10 years ago. Just interfaces should work, that's what I use. It checks both. Sent from my Motorola XT1527i On Jul 12, 2018 7:30 AM, "Christian Knoke" <chr...@cknoke.de> wrote: Gene Haskett schrieb am 12.

In /etc/network/interfaces you need an uncommented line like # source /etc/network/interfaces.d/* $ ifconfig might tell you that the interface's name has been changed to something different. Maybe the network-manager is active? Christian -- *** Christian Knoke * 25541 Brunsbüttel * http://cknoke.de *** ... ...
