Default Route and Dns With Opensuse Tumbleweed with static IP

If changing your default network interface from, say wireless, to wired, you may have to explicitly set default gateway and DNS options.

Ther should be a file under /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ which will link to the wired interface.

Open that file in your favourite editor, vim.

vim /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/enp0s31f6.nmconnection

[ipv4]
method=manual
address1=10.0.0.2/24,10.0.0.1
dns=10.0.0.1

• dns will set the default DNS server
• address1 sets the static IP, and the gateway.
  • address1=10.0.0.2/24 sets the static IP
  • adding ,10.0.0.1 will set the default gateway to 10.0.0.1.
