(network-configure)= # How to configure a network To configure an existing network, use either the [`incus network set`](incus_network_set.md) and [`incus network unset`](incus_network_unset.md) commands (to configure single settings) or the `incus network edit` command (to edit the full configuration). To configure settings for specific cluster members, add the `--target` flag. For example, the following command configures a DNS server for a physical network: ```bash incus network set UPLINK dns.nameservers=8.8.8.8 ``` The available configuration options differ depending on the network type. See {ref}`network-types` for links to the configuration options for each network type. There are separate commands to configure advanced networking features.
