SSH server is now enabled, because we saved the SSH.TXT file on the root of the boot file system on the earlier step. You can use any SSH client to log into the Raspberry.

| - | * For ease of access through SSH, you may want to configure a static IP address for your Raspberry Pi so that you can connect to the same IP address without always checking your router for the correct IP address. Later on you may want to reverse this change, if you want the Raspberry to auto-configure to be used in any network. In the latest version of Raspbian, you can set a static IP by editing **/etc/dhcpcd.conf** and uncommenting the example static configuration. | + | * For ease of access through SSH, you may want to configure a static IP address for your Raspberry Pi so that you can connect to the same IP address without always checking your router for the correct IP address. Later on, you can optionally reverse this change, if you want the Raspberry to auto-configure to be used in any network. In the version of Raspbian OS (2018 as of time of writing), you can set a static IP by editing **/etc/dhcpcd.conf** and uncommenting the example static configuration. |

| * Here's an example of my static IP configuration. As you can see, I've set my IP as **10.0.16.50** and router to **10.0.16.1**. Usually the router can also double as a domain name server, but for portability I've told Raspberry to just use the Google name server, **8.8.4.4**. For simplicity, I won't use any other name servers at this time, but if you want to use more, you can add them to the same line, just separate them with a space. | * Here's an example of my static IP configuration.
