I have two network adapters on VirtualBox for Ubuntu server.

  • Adapter 1: internal network called intent
  • Adapter 2: NAT

I want to configure them as follows,

  • static IP 192.168.10.101 for the internal network adapter
  • netmask 255.255.255.0
  • dhcp IP for the NAT adapter

How can I do this?

Open /etc/network/interfaces with your favorite text editor, ie:

sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces

Locate the interfaces and set them as desired, ie:

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.10.101
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.10.0
broadcast 192.168.10.255

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp

That should be all.
