Changing the IP of your cloud vps

These changes can be made via SSH as your root user, or through the browser VNC console in your cloud.hawkhost.com control panel (accessible from your client area service list).

CentOS and AlmaLinux

Log in to your compute as root.
Open the network configuration file with your preferred text editor:
```
nano /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
```

The file will contain fields similar to:

DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
IPADDR=198.252.100.63

GATEWAY=198.252.100.126

DNS2=8.8.4.4

Replace the IPADDR, NETMASK, GATEWAY, and other fields with the new IP information provided in your support ticket.
Save the file and close the editor.
