how to assign a static IP?

[Sukumar Ghorai]

Hi,

I need to assign a static-IP to a Chromebook for AVL testing (IP need to be fixed and need to assign quickly after reboot).

When Configure dhcp server to assign a static IP address, it takes much longer time to update the ip-address when Chromebook connect the LAN and test case timeout.

Hence we connect to local hub and tester, and need to assign a static-ip to Chromebook.

 

In Linux, I use /etc/network/interfaces file to set the static IP.

In Chrome, I set the static-ip in chrome UI->NetworkTab (deselect Configure automatically), however get reset back immediately and even after reboot.

 

Hence, how to assign a static-IP to a Chromebook?

Thx & rgds,

Sukumar

Normally that setting persists across reboots. Is this chromebook
under enterprise management? If it is, the owner may be imposing
restrictions on the network configuration.

As mentioned, I set the static-ip in chrome UI->NetworkTab (deselect Configure automatically), however its reset back immediately in 2sec.

I see its working fine (able to set static-IP) after using the latest release (R63-9933).
