That way your Raspberry Pi will continue to have its address allocated via DHCP but will receive the same address each time. A "fixed" address can be allocated by your DHCP server associating it with the MAC address of your Raspberry Pi. Management of IP addresses will remain with the DHCP server and this will avoid address conflicts and potential network problems. However, if you wish to disable automatic configuration for an interface, and instead configure it statically, you can do so in `/etc/dhcpcd.conf`. For example:
