wpa_supplicant is not IP layer. you will want to learn to use ifconfig or iproute2 to add an ip address to your interface.

IMHO the best way is to map your MAC address to an IP address in your router. This way you can manage all your static IPs in one location and backup your router configuration.

thanks to all for the help.

i manage it with "ifconfig" to set an static IP for the WLAN0 device.
