Assigning your devices a static IP address ensures they will always have that same IP. Static IP addresses are necessary for services such as remote access and creating port forwarding rules; and can also be useful to keep track of the IP addresses of key devices that are commonly connected to a network. Follow the steps below to assign a static IP to a device.
