Need example netplan yaml for static ip [closed]

I want to migrate my network configuration to netplan. I have been using ifup/down and the /etc/network/interfaces file to configure my static IPs, but this has been deprecated and support will be withdrawn in the 17.10 release.

However

sudo netplan ifupdown-migrate

returns

enp0s3: method static is not supported

So how do I convert this /etc/network/interfaces stanza?

auto enp0s3 iface enp0s3 inet static address 192.168.0.123 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
  • What does the complete file look like?
  • How should it be named and placed?

Thank you.

After looking through the man page I came up with this:

 network: version: 2 ethernets: enp0s3: addresses: [192.168.0.140/24] gateway4: 192.168.0.1 nameservers: addresses: [8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4]

It is named

/etc/netplan/01-systemd-networkd-eth.yaml

And it works.

This command was a great help:

netplan --debug generate

which pointed me to syntactical errors.

Breaking news. Just found this:
