How to give a device a fixed IP address, in the UniFi network console. The Autonomy Park and the Indoor Lab both have UniFi Wi-Fi systems.

Every device on the Autonomy Park and Indoor Lab networks should have a fixed IP address, listed on IP Reservations. Both labs have UniFi (Ubiquiti) Wi-Fi systems, managed in the UniFi network console. On each network, the router (gateway) login portal is at 192.168.1.1. To get access to it, see Contacts.

Netplan Is Indoor Lab Only

The Autonomy Park does not use netplan files. The Indoor Lab computers also need them: see Networking Setup (Indoor Lab).

Jetsons: Set the IP Before the Hostname

Set a Jetson's IP address before you change its hostname.

Steps

  1. Log in to the UniFi network console.
  2. Go to Client Devices.
  3. Find the device whose IP address you want to fix, and select it.
  4. In the panel on the right, check Fixed IP Address.
  5. Enter a valid local IP address that is not already reserved. UniFi will show you a warning.
  6. Add the device to the reservation list for its lab, found through IP Reservations.
