Interface Handlers We provide two interface handlers presently: ifconfig and iproute2. You need one of these to do any kind of network configuration. ifconfig is the current Gentoo default and it's included in the system profile. iproute2 is a more powerful and flexible package, but it's not included by default. -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow!
