# Assign a Static IP Address

To configure your Raspberry Pi with a static IP address, follow these steps:

1. Open the network interfaces configuration file by running:

```bash
sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
```

2. Replace the contents of the file with the following settings:

```
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
    address <YOUR_IP_ADDRESS>
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    gateway <YOUR_GATEWAY>
    dns-nameservers <YOUR_DNS_SEPARATED_BY_A_SPACE>
```

3. Save the file and exit.

4. Restart your Raspberry Pi using the command:

```bash
reboot
```

And just like that, you’re all set! 

Happy me! 🌱
