Copy this code and paste it in your HTML

### Edit /etc/network/interfaces (in this example setup I will use the IP address 192.168.178.50 for eth0):
 
 
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
 
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
 
# This is a list of hotpluggable network interfaces.
# They will be activated automatically by the hotplug subsystem.
mapping hotplug
        script grep
        map eth0
 
# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 192.168.178.50
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network 192.168.178.0
        broadcast 192.168.178.255
        gateway 192.168.178.1
        #optional
        #dns-nameserver 102.168.178.1
 
 
 
### You can also edit /etc/resolv.conf to configure a dns-server to use:
 
nameserver 192.168.178.1
