Changing the IP of your Cloud Compute Print

These changes can be made through SSH as your root user, or through your browser VNC. You can access your browser VNC through your https://cloud.hawkhost.com control panel, which is also accessible through your client area when viewing your compute service.

CentOS and AlmaLinux:

1. Login to your compute as your root user
   
   
2. With your preferred text editor, open your network configuration file, located at /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0. For purpose of our example, we'll use nano as the editor:
   
   

   nano /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

3. When your network config file opens, you will see a format similar to below:
   
   DEVICE="eth0"
   ONBOOT="yes"
   BOOTPROTO="static"
   IPADDR="64.46.102.34"
   NETMASK="255.255.255.0"
   NETWORK="64.46.102.0"
   BROADCAST="64.46.102.255"
   GATEWAY="64.46.102.1"
   
   OR
   
   AUTOCONNECT_PRIORITY=120
   BOOTPROTO=none
   DEFROUTE=yes
   DEVICE=eth0
   DNS1=8.8.8.8
   DNS2=8.8.4.4
   GATEWAY=198.252.100.126
   HWADDR=00:3c:a8:a8:ca:38
   IPADDR=198.252.100.63
   NETMASK=255.255.255.128
   ONBOOT=yes
   TYPE=Ethernet
   USERCTL=no
   
   
   
4. Replace each field as instructed from your support ticket with your new IP information. For example, if your new IP address is 198.252.108.1, you would replace the current IPADDR 198.252.100.63 with your new IP 198.252.108.1. If your new GATEWAY is 198.252.108.126, replace the current GATEWAY 198.252.100.126 with 198.252.108.126
   
   
5. Once you have made the changes, close your text editor and save all changes
   
   
6. Reboot your compute, either by issuing the command systemctl reboot or through your browser cloud control panel

Ubuntu

1. Login to your compute as your root user
   
   
2. With your preferred text editor, open your network configuration file, located at /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml. For purpose of our example, we'll use nano as the editor:
   
   

   nano /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml

3. When your network config file opens, you will see a format similar to below:
   
   network:
   ethernets:
   ens3:
   addresses:
   - 172.96.184.115/25
   gateway4: 172.96.184.126
   match:
   macaddress: 00:93:21:40:7c:fd
   nameservers:
   addresses:
   - 8.8.8.8
   - 8.8.4.4
   routes:
   - scope: link
   to: 172.96.184.126
   via: 0.0.0.0
   version: 2
   
   
4. Replace each field as instructed from your support ticket with your new IP information. For example, if your new IP address is 198.252.108.1, you would replace the current IPADDR 172.96.184.115 with your new IP 198.252.108.1. If your new GATEWAY is 198.252.108.126, replace the current GATEWAY 172.96.184.126 with 198.252.108.126
   
   
5. Once you have made the changes, close your text editor and save all changes
   
   
6. Reboot your compute, either by issuing the command systemctl reboot or through your browser cloud control panel
