How To Change IP Address, Netmask, Gateway In Kali Linux and Windows ?

CHANGE IP ADDRESS, NETMASK, GATEWAY IN KALI LINUX AND WINDOWS.
   

The first thing that comes in mind when we have to start hacking is how to hide Identity, How to be anonymous ? Well, Being anonymous through out the web is not easy. You have to be enough smarter, You must have knowledge about all the terms that are used for specifying identity and know how to manipulate it. IP address, Netmask, and Gateway are the three major terms that are used to identify the person working on web. Different devices have different IP Address. One Should Know How to Manipulate IP Address in order to be anonymous. So, today i am going to write about the method by which you can change your IP Address, Netmask and Gateway.

As, you know different operating systems run on different strategies and have different commands but the well know operating system that is used for hacking is the Kali Linux. But here i am going to show you how you can change the same in windows operating system also. Before starting the method lets look on the terms and their meaning.

IP ADDRESS: An IP address (abbreviation of Internet Protocol address) is an identifier assigned to each computer and other device (e.g., printer, router, mobile device, etc.) connected to a TCP/IP network that is used to locate and identify the node in communications with other nodes on the network.

NETMASK: A netmask is a 32-bit mask used to divide an IP address into subnets and specify the network's available hosts. In a netmask, two bits are always automatically assigned. For example, in 255.255.225.0, "0" is the assigned network address. In 255.255.255.255, "255" is the assigned broadcast address.

GATEWAY: A gateway is a link between two computer programs or systems such as Internet forums. A gateway acts as a portal between two programs allowing them to share information by communicating between protocols on a computer or between dissimilar computers.

4. Now, type the command

  

    auto etho

    iface etho inet static

    address 192.168.1.39

    netmask 255.255.255.0

    gateway 192.168.1.1

5. After that press ctrl-X and then 'Y' to enter yes, and then 'return' to save.

6. Now, Reboot the system

Changing Network Components in Windows is quit easy as compared to Kali Linux, you don't 

have to execute a set of commands. What we have to do is to jump to specific path in the 

control panel and it is easily customiable. Here is the path to change the IP Address, Netmask 

and Gateway in Windows.
