/sbin/ifconfig eth0 192.168.10.12 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.10.255
invoke-rc.d network restart


Configuration is in /etc/network/interfaces

Another Way

1) Edit the /etc/network/interfaces file

Set the static IP changing the network interface that you need (Example ETH0)

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0

iface eth0 inet static
      address 192.168.0.30
      netmask 255.255.255.0
      network 192.168.0.0
      broadcast 192.168.0.255
      gateway 192.168.0.1

Save the file

2) Edit the /etc/resolv.conf file and add the DNS servers that you need

nameserver 200.83.1.5
nameserver 200.83.1.4
nameserver 146.83.126.8
nameserver 200.73.13.150
nameserver 200.73.13.50

Save the file

3) Restart the network or your computer (I recommend to reboot the computer)
