Problem: I cannot get a static IP on the ethernet port.

Aim: Trying to setup a static IP on the Realtek built-in ethernet
(enp3s0) port so I can connect the server to my desktop via a
crossover cable. At the moment, there is no crossover cable between
the 2.

Setup: Ubuntu Bionic server edition with Intel WiFi card and a Reaktek
ethernet port. During installation, I had to connect the ethernet port
to my modem/router as the Ubuntu installer cannot recognize my WiFi
card.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Things I've tried:
1. I disabled my WiFi card  and then I've tried using just "dchp4:
true" and then connected a cable from the port to my modem/router. No
issues getting an IP and pinging a site.

2. I've tried with and without "renderer: networkd", no difference.

3. I've tried with and without "dhcp4" false", no difference.

4. I've tried with and without gateway4, no difference.

5. I've tried with and without nameservers, no difference.

6. I looked at the generated config inside /run/systemd/network
(included below) and looks ok.

7. Debugged systemd-networkd as suggested by this page
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSystemd) and I can see this line:
"enp3s0: Link is not managed by us". That doesn't seemed right as I
don't have anything else managing my interfaces and as I said in no.1,
using DHCP worked.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's my current config:

>cat /etc/netplan/01-wireless.yaml
network:
  version: 2
  renderer: networkd
  wifis:
    wlp2s0:
      dhcp4: true
      access-points:
        "insert-access-point-here":
          password: "insert-password-here"

>cat /etc/netplan/02-ethernet.yaml
network:

  renderer: networkd

    enp3s0:
      addresses: [192.168.2.1/24]
