ipcfg is a modern, flexible network configuration system, that by its
authors is intended to eventually replace ifupdown as the default network
configuration management system in Debian.
.
Although it is not yet ready, it can already be used for fairly simple
network configuration tasks: a desktop with a fixed or DHCP-assigned IP
address, a laptop with a wireless interface, and others. But many
features still need to be added, and much testing still needs to be
done; for this reason, it is being uploaded to experimental for the
time being.
.
Even though it is incomplete, it already has a few features not found
in ifupdown: e.g., it can decide which interface to bring up at boot
time based on whether a link is available on a list of interfaces, and
it can change inteface names halfway through an 'ifup' run (allowing
things like 'ifup any-network').
