Sorry - you go to Yast->Network devices - then edit the address assignment mode for the individual device(s). Usually you will have static, dhcpv4, dhcpv6 and 4+6. (all from memory, ymmv). Thanks for this but the water is too cold and too deep so I'll stay in the boat where it is safe :-) . You can "stay in the boat" where you may *never* reach shore, but the described action does work as I have been using it for several years on my server machine(s), which are still on 11.2. That's nice.... for you :-) . But when one has never touched anything-networking telling one to "edit address assignment mode...." goes totally over the head.
Now, if someone posts a screenshot of YaST where such a change was done then one can start to understand what "address assignment mode....." means and where it is configured :-) . I'd be happy to, but I only use the ncurses interface, and I expect you use the GUI?
Yep, I am (almost) strictly a gooeey man :-) .
