Dear Chris, Thanks for your advice. We have tried this "sudo/etc/init.d/networking start", but still the server cannot receive any IP from the Mikrotik Router Board 1100 AH. How else can we try to resolve this issue? On Tuesday, 17 November 2015, Chris Cormack <chrisc@catalyst.net.nz> wrote:

In that case, have a look at your /etc/network/interfaces file
And if eth0 is the one you want to set
comment out what is currently there for eth0 (change for eth1 etc if that makes sense)
and add
auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp
(Do this from the console, because you dont want to lock yourself out)
Then do
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
or
sudo service networking restart
Then if you look at ifconfig you should have received an address from the dhcp server
