Operating Systems Linux IPV6 ip getting deleted after ping Post 302944823 by neutronscott on Friday 22nd of May 2015 08:59:36 AM

NetworkManager configures an interface. You'd need to set it up rather than use ifconfig. It seems to apply its configuration periodically, in this case is nil.

So if you've a GUI and NetworkManager, just use it to set your static IP rather than ifconfig from the command line.

There is a command-line utility for NetworkManager, nmcli, but I tend to use a GUI on the desktop and no NetworkManager on a server so I've no experience to offer about it.
