unable to setup network,urgent help needed!!
Hi all,
I just bought a new system, but am unable to configure network on it..
am using a nge0 ethernet interface to login.
i've tried all i knew but not of the webpages seem to open.
Here is what i've done..

ifconfig nge0 plumb
ifconfig -a
(nge0) was being displayed as up and running.

opened network settings
$ network-admin

the hostname was already set.
I had to set the domain name, didnt exactly know what to give here, but as of now ive give airetelbroadband.in (airtel is my ISP).
(would like to know if it is necessary??)
then set the connection to take DHCP.
thats it.

the set my hostname in /etc/nodename
touch /etc/dhcp.nge0

but when i reboot i still cannot connect to the net!!!
Its a little urgent because this is the only OS i have right now!!
pls assist!!

Thanks

systemd-networkd.service

SYSTEMD-NETWORKD.SERVICE(8)				     systemd-networkd.service				       SYSTEMD-NETWORKD.SERVICE(8)

NAME

       systemd-networkd.service, systemd-networkd - Network manager

SYNOPSIS

       systemd-networkd.service

       /lib/systemd/systemd-networkd

DESCRIPTION

       systemd-networkd is a system service that manages networks. It detects and configures network devices as they appear, as well as creating
       virtual network devices.

       To configure low-level link settings independently of networks, see systemd.link(5).

       systemd-networkd will create network devices based on the configuration in systemd.netdev(5) files, respecting the [Match] sections in
       those files.

       systemd-networkd will manage network addresses and routes for any link for which it finds a .network file with an appropriate [Match]
       section, see systemd.network(5). For those links, it will flush existing network addresses and routes when bringing up the device. Any
       links not matched by one of the .network files will be ignored. It is also possible to explicitly tell systemd-networkd to ignore a link by
       using Unmanaged=yes option, see systemd.network(5).

       When systemd-networkd exits, it generally leaves existing network devices and configuration intact. This makes it possible to transition
       from the initrams and to restart the service without breaking connectivity. This also means that when configuration is updated and
       systemd-networkd is restarted, netdev interfaces for which configuration was removed will not be dropped, and may need to be cleaned up
       manually.

CONFIGURATION FILES

       The configuration files are read from the files located in the system network directory /lib/systemd/network, the volatile runtime network
       directory /run/systemd/network and the local administration network directory /etc/systemd/network.

       Networks are configured in .network files, see systemd.network(5), and virtual network devices are configured in .netdev files, see
       systemd.netdev(5).
