Here's how I'm doing testing (netinst ISO image):
Case 1: A dedicated Debian Edu gateway is already available on the
network (so DHCP isn't available).
As soon as DHCP configuration fails, use manual network configuration if
installing a system with the 'Main-Server' profile. Set IP: 10.0.2.2,
netmask: 255.0.0.0, gateway: 10.0.0.1, name server: 8.8.8.8
Case 2: Some NATed network (with DHCP) is available.
(1) Set up the Debian Edu gateway using the 'Minimal' profile like
outlined in the manual; see
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Stretch/Requirements
(2) Set up the main server on the network connected to the gateway's
eth1 interface just like in case 1.
