    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ifconfig

    Common uses for ifconfig include setting the IP address and subnet mask of a network interface and disabling or enabling an interface. [1] At boot time, many Unix-like operating systems initialize their network interfaces with shell scripts that call ifconfig. As an interactive tool, system administrators routinely use the utility to display ...

  4. Link-local address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link-local_address

    Link-local addresses may be assigned manually by an administrator or by automatic operating system procedures. In Internet Protocol (IP) networks, they are assigned most often using stateless address autoconfiguration, a process that often uses a stochastic process to select the value of link-local addresses, assigning a pseudo-random address that is different for each session.

    Thus the term static here refers to the nature of remaining unchanged by the system itself. The most prominent example of a static route is a default route which is often used on devices with a statically configured IP address to provide the device with access to the rest of the network or the internet by default.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address

    IP addresses are assigned to a host either dynamically as they join the network, or persistently by configuration of the host hardware or software. Persistent configuration is also known as using a static IP address. In contrast, when a computer's IP address is assigned each time it restarts, this is known as using a dynamic IP address.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address_Resolution_Protocol

    The user's computer has an IP address stuffed manually into its address table (normally with the arp command with the MAC address taken from a label on the device) The computer sends special packets to the device, typically a ping packet with a non-default size. The device then adopts this IP address
