Configure Static IP Address on Windows Server 2022
A static IP address is an IP address that was manually configured for a Windows device instead of an IP address assigned by a DHCP server. This step-by-step tutorial covers how to configure a Static IP Address on Windows Server 2022
Demo environment
- Computer Name: server1
- Operating System: Windows Server 2022 Datacenter
The IP address is assigned by DHCP by default.
1. Open the Server Manager dashboard, select Local Server, and click Ethernet.
2. Right-click on Ethernet and Click Properties.
3. In Ethernet Properties, click Internet Protocol Version 4(TCP/IPv4)
4. In Internet Protocol Version 4(TCP/IPv4) Properties, set Static IP address, Gateway, and other details and click OK.
- IP address: 192.168.1.60
- Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
- Default gateway:192.168.1.1
- Preferred DNS server: 8.8.8.8
- Alternate DNS server:8.8.4.4
5. Click OK.
The static IP (IPv4) address has been configured.
IP Address (IPV4)
IP Addressing is logical addressing. An IP address can be divided into 2 portions network and host address. The network address is used to identify the network and the host address is used to identify devices on the network. IP V4 is 32-bit addressing. The 32 bits are divided into 4 octets and the total IP addressing scheme is divided into 5 classes (Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, and Class E). Private IP Addresses used on private networks are not routable through the internet.
Class A
Class B is used for used Local area network (LAN) and Local area network (WAN).
- First octet range: 0 – 127
- Default Subnet Mask: 255.0.0.0
- Privet IP Address: 10.0.0.0-10.255.255.255
Class B
Class B is used for used Local area network (LAN) and Local area network (WAN).
- First octet range:128-191
- Default Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
- Privet IP Address: 172.16.0.0-172.31.255.255
Class C
Class B is used for used Local area network (LAN) and Local area network (WAN).
- First octet range: 192-223
- Default Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
- Privet IP Address: 192.168.0.0-192.168.255.255
Class D
Class D is used for Multicasting.
- First octet range: 224 – 239
Class E
Class E is used for Research and development.
- First octet range: 240 – 255
