How to change the SBC IP from DHCP to Static

[udaaara]

Hi All,

We’ve got an SBC running on a Raspberry Pi 4, and for some reason, it’s switched from a static IP to DHCP. There are about 30 phones provisioned to it.

How do I switch it back to a static IP?

I tried editing the dhcpcd.conf file to set a static IP and it changed, but after that, all the phones lost service and vanished from the 3CX admin portal.

Any tips would be awesome—thanks!

It really is amazing how google works

Thanks for reply,

I'm facing an issue where, once I set the IP to static, all the provisioned phones lose service, and I can’t find them in the admin portal either.

There’s another SBC on the network.

Would the best solution be to provision all the phones to the second SBC, update the IP to a static on SBC 1, and then re-provision all the phones to SBC 1?

Have you confirmed that the ip is configured properly?
The steps below will show you the way:

@udaaara When you say you are changing it to static, are you also changing the IP address?

I suggest setting a MAC-based IP reservation at your router/gateway/DHCP server.
