Description: network interface configuration tool -- ifupdown compat
ifupdown-ng is a network interface configuration tool that is largely
compatible with Debian ifupdown, BusyBox ifupdown and Cumulus Networks'
ifupdown2.
.
It is intended as a drop-in replacement for all aforementioned suites and
provides the well-known ifup/ifdown/ifquery tools as well as ifctrstat to
query interface statistics via CLI.
.
ifupdown-ng provides dependency resolutions between interfaces (physical,
bond, vlan, bridges, etc.) to configure interfaces in a meaniful order
independent of their order within the configuration file(s).
.
ifupdown-ng currently has support for B.A.T.M.A.N. adv., bonding, bridges,
MPLS, PPP, regular tunnels + wireguard, VLANs, VRFs, VXLAN, as well as
setting hardware/driver parameters with ethtool.
.
This package provides compatibility with traditional ifupdown.
