To display the connected network devices, run the command 
sudo lshw -C network
and see something like this:
*-network
description: Ethernet interface
product: 79c970 [PCnet32 LANCE]
producer: Hynix Semiconductor (Hyundai Electronics)
physical ID: 3
bus info: pci@0000:00:03.0
logical name: eth0 
version: 40
serial number: 08:00:27:13:be:c2
size: 100Mbit/s
capacity: 100Mbit/s
bitness: 32 bits
frequency: 33MHz
capabilities: bus_master ethernet physical tp mii 10bt 10bt-fd 100bt 100bt-fd autonegotiation
configuration: autonegotiation=on broadcast=yes driver=pcnet32 driverversion=1.35 duplex=full ip=192.168.8.24 latency=64 link=yes maxlatency=255 mingnt=6 multicast=yes port=MII speed=100Mbit/s
resources: IRQ:10 ioport:d020(size=32) memory:f0000000-f0000fff memory:f0080000-f00fffff
From the information provided by this command we need the network device logical name eth0 for subsequent configuration. Run the command: 
sudo leafpad /etc/network/interfaces
and insert the following:

For a static IP address

For a dynamic IP address

iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.101
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1
auto eth0

iface eth0 inet dhcp
auto eth0

Restart the network interface:
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
Check the settings using the ifconfig command. You will see roughly the following:

ucs@STVRN2:~$ ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 08:00:27:13:be:c2 
inet addr: 192.168.0.101 Bcast:198. 168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

lo Link encap:Local loop (Loopback)
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1

TX packets:28 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

RX bytes:2236 (2.2 KB) TX bytes:2236 (2.2 KB)
These are network interface settings, in this case eth0 is is the external interface, the local network.
