MacOS configuration network tutorial
1. IP address configuration
Manually specify the IP
The following 3 commands can complete the IP address Configuration:
- ifconfig interface [address_family] [address [netmask]]
- ipconfig set interface-name (MANUAL | INFORM) ip-address subnet-mask
- networksetup -setmanual
Example of manually specifying IP:
macbook$ sudo ifconfig en0 inet 192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0
macbook$ sudo ipconfig set en0 MANUAL 192.168.1.10 255.255.255.0
macbook$ sudo networksetup -setmanual Wi-Fi 192.168.1.10 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1
Note: ifconfig and ipconfig both specify networks port device name, while networksetup requires the use of the alias set by MacOS for the network port (so-called "network service") to specify the network port.
Use DHCP to configure IP
You can use the following 2 commands to re-obtain the DHCP configuration:
- ipconfig set interface-name ( DHCP | BOOTP)
- networksetup -setdhcp
Example of using DHCP to dynamically obtain an IP address:
macbook$ ipconfig set en0 DHCP
macbook$ networksetup -setdhcp Wi-Fi
Note: ifconfig and ipconfig are both specified The name of the network port device, and networksetup requires the use of the alias set by MacOS for the network port (so-called "network service") to specify the network port.
Configuring the default gateway
You can use the following command to configure the default gateway:
- networksetup -setmanual
- route [add | change ] default
- route [add | change ] -net 0.0.0.0
Default gateway configuration example:
macbook$ sudo networksetup -setmanual Wi-Fi 192.168.1.10 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1
The following two commands are equivalent:
macbook$ sudo route add default 192.168.1.1 macbook$ sudo route add -net 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1
If a default route already exists, you may need to delete the existing default route first, and then add the default route Route:
macbook$ sudo route delete default macbook$ sudo route add default 192.168.1.1
Or you can replace the existing default route:
macbook$ sudo route change default 192.168.1.1
Add static route
You can add a route using the following command:
macbook$ sudo route [-n] [add | delete | change] [-net | -host] [-ifscope boundif] destination gateway [netmask]
First check the current routing table:

2. Set DNS
Specify DNS server
Configuration command:
macbook$ networksetup -setdnsservers <networkservice> <dns1> [dns2] [...]
Example:
macbook$ sudo networksetup -setdnsservers Wi-Fi 114.114.114.114 114.114.114.115
When the DNS address parameter is not specified, clear the configured DNS server:
macbook$ sudo networksetup -setdnsservers Wi-Fi
View the currently configured DNS server
Method 1: View the manually specified DNS server address
Command:
macbook$ networksetup -getdnsservers
Note: This command can only view the manually specified one DNS server address, the DNS address obtained by DHCP cannot be viewed!
Example:
macbook$ sudo networksetup -getdnsservers Wi-Fi
Method 2: View the DNS address configured by DHCP
Command:
macbook$ ipconfig getpacket interface-name
This command is used to view the DNS address configured by DHCP The relevant network configuration information obtained also includes DNS configuration information!
Example:
macbook$ sudo ipconfig getpacket en0

end (none):3. Clear DNS cache
OS X 10.9 (Mavericks):
macbook$ dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder
OS X 10.10 ( Yosemite):
macbook$ sudo discoveryutil udnsflushcaches
Versions 10.10.4 :
macbook$ sudo dscacheutil -flushcache;sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder
OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) and OS X 10.12 (Sierra):
macbook$ sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder
OS X 10.12.4:
macbook$ sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder; sudo killall mDNSResponderHelper; sudo dscacheutil -flushcache;
