From time to time I find myself wondering where *ifconfig* has gone.

I’ve been messing around with qemu lately, and all the examples of how to set up networking use the “ip” command. Which probably makes sense, since all the things that require managing (virtual ethernet interfaces, bridges, taps etc) are most conveniently done from one place. Some common equivalents (or near-equivalents): Show all network interfaces--old way: ifconfig -a New way: ip address show Show routing table--old way: route -n New way: ip route show Show ARP cache--old way: arp -n New way: ip neigh show Show listening TCP ports--old way: netstat -lt New way: ss -lt
