How do I stop DHCP to request address for a static interface? - networking

I have a Raspberry PI 4 running Ubuntu 21.10 with a static ip-address on eth0. Despite that, I keep getting a secondary 'dynamic' DHCP address on on it.
netplan
network:
version: 2
renderer: networkd
ethernets:
eth0:
dhcp4: no

addresses: [192.168.0.12]
ip addr show
eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether dc:a6:32:da:df:55 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.0.10/23 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global eth0
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet 192.168.0.225/23 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global secondary dynamic eth0
valid_lft 68727sec preferred_lft 68727sec
inet6 fe80::dea6:32ff:feda:df55/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
Even if I delete that interface, it keeps coming back after a few minutes. I have another PI with the "same" configuration and it doesn't have this problem.
I also have the /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/99-disable-network-config.cfg per instructions.

Have you tried using the word false instead of no on your dhcp4 entry to netplan?

QEMU bridge attachment issue

I'm trying to create default NAT and bridge interface in my QEMU machine. Naturally, I created bridge interface in separate file /etc/network/intefaces.d/virbr2. Here is virbr2 file configuration:
# Configuring network virtual interface
# to be a virt switch
auto virbr2
iface virbr2 inet static
bridge_ports enp1s0
address 192.168.1.3
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
up ip route add 192.168.1.2 via 192.168.1.1 via enp1s0
brdige_stp off
bridge_waitport 0
bridge_fd 0
My general interface configuration file is pretty simple
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# auto launch enp1s0 interface after the host os is booted
# since we want create a bridge interface, let's attach
# it to bridge interface br0
auto enp1s0
iface enp1s0 inet manual
source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
Thus, interface virbr2 was created with proper IP address
$ ip a | grep -A 5 virbr2

As bridge interface created, I'm trying to launch my VM with next command:

-net nic \
-netdev 'tap,id=br1,ifname=virbr2,script=no,downscript=no' \
-device 'virtio-net-pci,netdev=br1'
After the script launch i get next error message
Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
qemu-system-x86_64: could not configure /dev/net/tun (virbr2): Invalid argument
How it's possible that argument is invalid? Interface name is correct, so I have no idea about the reason it's not working.

VM & host can't ping eachother over bridge

I have a host machine with Debian 10 & QEMU-KVM. I installed packages and rebooted:
sudo apt install qemu-kvm virt-manager
sudo reboot
So now I want to create a bridge that will enable my virtual servers to (a) connect to network and (b) to be seen to a host machine and other computers on the network.
I read dozen of tutorials on how to do this and failed miserably every time. I had some sucess setting up bridge with (a) package iproute2 and (b) package virt-manager (ran as super user).
Trying as a root:
By folowing archwiki I set up my bridge using these commands:
sudo ip link add virtual_bridge type bridge
sudo ip link set dev virtual_bridge up
I then reset the ethernet card and connect it to the bridge as it's slave:
sudo ip link set dev enx24f5a2f17b27 down
sudo ip addr flush dev enx24f5a2f17b27
sudo ip link set dev enx24f5a2f17b27 up
sudo ip link set dev enx24f5a2f17b27 master virtual_bridge
And then I open the GUI application:
sudo virt-manager
I right click the QEMU/KVM session (qemu:///system) and I choose connect:
When session is connected I start creating a new virtual machine. During it's creation I come to a window asking to choose type of virtual network. There are two options. First one has suboptions while second one enables manual input of the device:
Host device enx24f5a2f17b27: macvtap
Bridge
VEPA
Private
Passthrough
Specify shared device name
I tried choosing suboptions offered by the first option, but when selected they, issue a warning:
In most configurations macvtap does not work for host to guest network communication
This is not an option for me because my virtual servers will need two-way communication. This is why I choose the second option and I manualy specify my bridge virtual_bridge:
Then I start the virtual machine which can browse the internet and also can the host machine. Both are assigned the IP in the same network. But when I try to ping them ping doesn't work in any direction. Host, can't ping virtual machine and vice versa.
I can't explain this, because archwiki states that bridge should be transparent like a switch and devices should therefore be able to ping eachother:
A bridge is a piece of software used to unite two or more network
segments. A bridge behaves like a virtual network switch, working
transparently (the other machines do not need to know or care about
its existence).
If I check internet settings on a host:

From the above, I can confirm that my ethernet interface enx24f5a2f17b27 and vnet0 (which was automaticaly created by virtual machine) are both slaves to virtual_bridge *(note the keywords master virtual_bridge)*.
If I am honest I was expecting GUI application to also create TAP device as well but it only created vnet0... Is this actually a TAP device?
How can I make connection two-way?
Trying as a normal user (without bridge):
I deleted virtual_bridge and virtual_tap so that everything was back to normal.

I noticed that if I start virt-manager with sudo and use qcow2 image that image will become owned by root and it will become part of group root. This was part of my problem why I avoided using virt-manager as a normal user. So I fixed this and started virt-manager as a normal user.
I created the identical virtual machine but when a network window pops up it had different (!) options:
Userspace networking
Specify shared device name
I was unable to specify my interface enx24f5a2f17b27 manualy with the second option so I chose a userspace networking.
Then I started the virtual machine which can browse the internet and also can the host machine. Both are assigned the IP which is totaly different. When I try to ping them ping doesn't work in any direction. Host, can't ping virtual machine and vice versa.
Trying as a normal user (with bridge)
So now I first set up my my bridge precisely like I did in my first attempt as a sudo user:
sudo ip link add virtual_bridge type bridge
sudo ip link set dev virtual_bridge up
sudo ip link set dev enx24f5a2f17b27 down
sudo ip addr flush dev enx24f5a2f17b27
sudo ip link set dev enx24f5a2f17b27 up
sudo ip link set dev enx24f5a2f17b27 master virtual_bridge
so that I have:

I started the virt-manager as a normal user and created the identical virtual machine. When a network window pops up it has same options than before:

I was unable to specify my bridge virtual_bridge manualy with the second option because Qemu reports an internal eror:

Ubuntu 16.04 reboots with a different ip address then the static one assigned in /etc/network/interfaces

When my server reboots the ip address for eth0 is 192.168.1.2 when it should be 192.168.1.100 per the static ip address settings in /etc/network/interfaces. After boot if I run service networking restart it will assigning 192.168.1.100 to eth0. Also I don't know if this matters but the hostname displayed in my router is different the the hostname displayed in /etc/hosts.

I don't know about 16.04 but in previous versions you have Network Manager daemon setting the IPs. Use the applet 'nm-applet' to set up your static address. Right click it and go for 'edit connections'.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager
I fixed part of the problem it was as simple as changing the file to the parameters outline below.
/etc/network/interfaces
# IPv4 address
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.100
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8
Now when the server boots up it will auto assigning 192.168.1.100 although it will also still assigning 192.168.1.2. If I find a way to have it stop assigning the 2nd ip address I will update my answer. Thanks

Can please anyone explain, why eth0 has in that case two ip addresses 10.0.9.3/24 and 10.0.9.2/32?
This causes a problem, because when I run more instances, there are overlapping addresses which breaks my running service.
One is VIP, used for service.
Another is for node address, only for internal use. From perspective of APP, they should use service IP.

I have an LXC debian container which run on my archlinux host. I tried to setup a bridge (lxc-bridge-nat) using wlan0 but i can't ping the outside world from my container except if i ping using the ip instead of the domain name.

Container: /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 212.27.40.240
nameserver 212.27.40.241
Hostnames not resolving points immediately to the DNS servers, and posting the content of resolv.conf was useful here; they were the only part of this setup outside of your immediate control.
As you've found, simply pinging a remote server doesn't always help - running nslookup against them showed that they were the problem. (As a counterpoint, due to the way ping itself works a lack of response from a ping doesn't mean the server is down - pings are trivial to block at firewall level.)
To work around to your DNS issue, you can make use of other DNS servers, such as those hosted by Google. Simply alter your resolv.conf to:
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4
Adding 8.8.8.8 in /etc/network/interfaces is not a good idea. You should leave the interfaces file unchanged (restore the old settings) and modify only /etc/resolv.conf file.
You have set the container IP to the same IP of one of the Google's DNS servers.
Sure, the ping will work, but when you try to resolve a DNS hostname your container will contact itself and generate an error.
