On newer versions of Raspbian, the IP addressing for all network cards is done on the Pi via the program called dhcpcd. If you just want to set a static IP address, you can edit the /etc/dhcpcd.conf file, but we’re going to take a different approach.
This page in the guide will walk you through:
Disabling dhcpcd
Setting your IP address on usb0 manually
Setting up the l0 and wlan0 interfaces to act normally
Run your own DHCP server on the usb0 port, so your Pi can provide an address to your Linux or Windows PC or Mac without any additional software on your desktop or laptop.
