Everything you buy will default to dhcp these days, so why would I want to remember the special sauce to statically set an IP on some random printer, phone, tablet, or virtual machine?
What 'special sauce'?
Usually every distinct device has it's own distinct set of network configuration menus. I know my Kyocera printer is different to my Linksys a/d box and to my Zotac box. That is I suspect the "special sauce".
So long as I have an address for the WAN port of those, its just an entry in the browser.
Huh? That does not sound like statically configured network addresses, if anything it sounds like DHCP with MAC-specific assignments.
Just like using Yast on the host.
It looks like you have your idea about simple and I have mine.
I think perhaps you have statically and DHCP assigned addresses confused? I know it's unlikely, but that's what it sounds like. /Per -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
