Problems regarding setting up of Static IP in Gateway OS

[pooja.mittal]

Continuing the discussion from Redis connection error: dial tcp [::1]:6379: connect: connection refused (code: 2) in Gateway OS:

Hi @brocaar,

I want to set the Static IP Configurations as follows:

@pooja.mittal

#Wired or wireless interfaces auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.1.0 gateway 192.168.1.1

After setting it, as soon as I try to ping 192.168.1.2 , it says destination host unreachable. Also, I am not able to ssh to this ip.

But, if I set my Static Ip Configurations as follows:

@pooja.mittal

#Wired or wireless interfaces auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.7.0 gateway 192.168.7.1

I am able to ping and ssh , the ip i.e. 192.168.1.2. (Even though the latter configurations are wrong)

Can you please throw some light on this? I have been stuck on this for a while now!

Thank you!
