How to configure the network under the Ubuntu

IP configure:
If you want to configure the IP , gateway , netmask and so on, you will modify the interface file.
The path is like that /etc/network/interface.

You will modify like this:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
address 10.19.1.234
netmask 255.255.0.0
gateway 10.19.1.1

Notes :
When you write the dns-nameserver ,the counts of the nameserver is more than 2, you must
Write like the picture, or the system can’t successfully read and if you use the command-ifconfig to check the network information. You only see the information of the lo. So you must be careful.

DNS configure:
If you want to configure the DNS. You will modify the resolve.conf.
The path is like that /etc/resolve.conf.

You will modify like this:
# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)

DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND – YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN

nameserver 127.0.0.1

Than you will make the network working, you will like that.

/etc/init.d/networking restart.

The above way is tempore, if you want to modify the DNS forever, you need to modify the file named “base”, the path of the file is :
/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/
