For additional instructions on how to enable SSH on a Raspberry Pi please refer
to the Raspberry Pi Foundation's SSH documentation.
3.1.1.Configure the Raspberry Pi to allow SSH.
1. Enter sudo raspi-config
in a terminal window.

in a terminal window.
2. Add the following to the bottom of the file:
interface eth0
static ip_address=192.168.0.10/24
static routers=192.168.0.1
static domain_name_servers=192.168.0.1
static domain_name_servers=8.8.8.8
3. Exit the editor by pressing CTRL+X then save your changes by
pressing 'Y' and then hitting enter.
4. Restart the Raspberry Pi.
3.1.3. Configure your PC to have a static IP in the same subnet.
