Do remember that ifconfig has been deprecated, and no longer gives an
accurate view of networking. You can add IPs and set netmasks/broadcasts
and ifconfig may not show them anymore, unless they were set to specific
interfaces (which "ip address add .... " doesn't do by default.
I know we've been using it for years, but get out of the habit of using
it. The "ip" command is so much nicer anyway.
