Rainer, I believe others have responded.
Just for my curiosity, Is Network Manager installed? Would you be able to use nmclli to set a static IP address? Or maybe systemctl ? I find Linux Networking confusing, so many different systems for managing networking, for example /etc/network/interfaces (which I like), Network Manager (which I reluctantly accept), systemctl (which I do not appreciate), etc. Similarly with Firewalls, iptables (which I like), nftables (which I ask, Why?), and I am not sure what other methods are out there, but I guess there are more. Sadly I am far from understanding networking, I learn what I need to [hopefully] make it work. George.
