How to set permanent IP in Ubuntu ?

Steps :

*) Open the interfaces file :
          sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces

If you are using DHCP you will see the following lines :
          auth eth0
          iface eth0 inet dhcp 


*) To make it static, Change the line iface eth0 inet dhcp to iface eth0 inet static and add the following just below it:

address 10.35.34.209 (IP address that you need to set)
netmask 255.255.255.0 (Default mask which in this case is the default class c subnet)
gateway 10.35.34.1 (Typically your router’s IP address)
network 10.35.34.0 (The network that this machine is running on)
broadcast 10.35.34.255

Here is a screenshot of how it should look below :


*) Once you save this file you need to restart your networking service.
       sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
or
       sudo service networking restart

Note :
 /etc/init.d/networking restart command is deprecated on new debian and ubuntu, So in such case you can use :
            ifdown eth0 && ifup eth0
