# Statically set the IP configuration:

#: Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
#: Default Gateway '''192.168.235.1 ''' (The IP address of <code>virbr1</code> on your fedora host.)# Click on the '''DNS ''' tab and add '''192.168.235.1 ''' as the primary DNS server.# Select '''Forward''', and then select '''Apply ''' to Finish.#'''Restart your network ''' on fedora2. <code><span style="background-color:yellow">service NetworkManager restart</span></code>
# Verify your new interface by examining the output of <code>ifconfig</code>

# Verify the network by using <code>ping 192.168.235.1</code>
