ip vs ifconfig
Hi
I have heard from people that it is better to use `ip` command instead of `ifconfig`. So to configure NIC it can be done on 2 ways : 1. `ip address add 192.168.0.1/24 brd + dev eth0` 2. `ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up`. What is the difference ? thx for help. |

ip is newer and more powerful but ifconfig isn't going anywhere. |

Ditto :)

ip has way more technical options would be my guess but for most home users ifconfig is fine.
