4. Setting a Static IP for Kali Linux
(1) Check IP.
A dynamic IP is 192.168.204.146.
ip addr
ifconfig
(2) Confirm vim command.
apt install vim
(3) View network configuration.
vim /etc/network/interfaces 
(4) Add DNS.
vim /etc/resolv.conf
# 8.8.8.8 is a common DNS for domestic mobile, telecom, and unicom. 8.8.8.8 is provided by GOOGLE, 119.29.29.29 is Tencent's public DNS, 223.5.5.5 is Alibaba's public DNS.
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 114.114.114.114

vim /etc/network/interfaces.d/eth0
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static # Set eth0 to use the default static address
address 192.168.204.100 # Set eth0's IP address
netmask 255.255.255.0 # Set eth0's subnet mask
gateway 192.168.204.2 # Configure the default gateway for the current host
Modification:

cat /etc/os-release
III. Issues
1. Error Configuring /etc/resolv.conf
(1) Error message.
The network connection has been disconnected, temporary failure in name resolution.
the network connection has been disconnected Temporary failure in name resolution(2) Cause analysis.
In the new version of Kali Linux, the default initial state of network-manager is not started. Simply modifying /etc/resolv.conf will not take effect; this file needs network-manager to be started to take effect.(3) Solution.
Enable network-manager and change false to true.
vim /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
……
managed=true
