How to Set the IP Address on Windows 2008 Server Core
Type the following in a console window:
netsh interface ipv4 show interface
It should output something like this
As you can see, our interface have ID 2 (column Idx).
Then to set the ip address type the following (replacing the address, netmask and gateway with your own values):
netsh interface ipv4 set address name=”2” source=static address=192.168.0.10 mask=255.255.255.0 gateway=192.168.0.1
Next it’s time to set up addresses to DNS servers, type:
netsh interface ipv4 add dnsserver name=”2” address=192.168.0.11
To add more DNS servers just type the above command again with another ip address.
ipconfig /all

Other useful netsh commands:
Delete ip address from a interface:
netsh interface ipv4 delete address “Local Area Connection” addr=192.168.0.10 gateway=all
Delete DNS server from a interface:
netsh interface ipv4 delete dnsserver “Local Area Connection” 192.168.0.10
netsh interface ipv4 delete dnsserver “Local Area Connection” all
Substitute “Local Area Connection” with the name on the interface you want to act on.
