That is configured in /etc/network/interfaces

read man 5 interfaces to get an idea of how to write the configuration you
want.

here's an example presuming your ipaddress=10.0.0.3
#begin example
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 10.0.0.3
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network 10.0.0.0
        broadcast 10.0.0.255
        gateway 10.0.0.254
#end example
