I am using Windows host and ubuntu guest via Virtualbox. I have 2 network adapters configured. Both are bridged. The first one is bridged to my wifi network adapter and the second one is bridged to my usb ethernet adapter. The wifi adapter is set to dhcp, the usb network adapter is set to static ip. My problem is that in my linux guest only the wifi adapter is up after boot and the usb adapter one is not up, even though configured in interfaces. This is the ifconfig -a output:



lukasz@lukasz-vb:~$ ifconfig -a

The 1st one is thorugh wifi adapter, and the second one is through usb adapter. This is ifconfig:

The second adapter is down...



I tried configuring it in etc/network/interfaces:



lukasz@lukasz-vb:~$ cat /etc/network/interfaces 
# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# USB C ethrnet adapter static ip
auto enp0s8
iface enp0s8 inet static
address 10.10.10.7
netmask 255.0.0.0
gateway 10.10.10.6


The 1st (wifi) interface works, even though its not even configured there, how can I configure the 2nd?

  • Have you tried ifup enp0s8?

  • Yes it works if I do it manually after the boot. But how to make the interface live after boot automatically?

  • I thought Ubuntu had surrendered to systemd and now uses the dhcpd. In that case, the config-file is /etc/dhcpcd.conf instead of /etc/network/interfaces?
