[Solved] How to set permanent static IP address on ethernet device?

I've manually assigned an IP to my ethernet card like

ip addr add 1.0.0.2/16 dev enp1s0

It works while the machine is on, but it releases that IP once it reboots. How do I keep this IP permanent?

Use a network manager.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Netctl

etc.

you can also write your own unit file or use a cronjob
