[ifconfig](http://linux.die.net/man/8/ifconfig) is more or less deprecated and replaced by [ip](http://linux.die.net/man/8/ip), which has a different syntax.

I cannot remember its full syntax everytime I use it and lookup the syntax over at [tridex' post](http://tridex.net/2011-06-19/linux-netzwerke-ohne-ifconfig/).

But is just to much overhead if I just need one command. So I took half an hour today and "converted" it to a plain text version. You can find it at: <http://tmp.fnordig.de/ip.txt>

Or read here:
