17Description: Network Interface Management tool similar to ifupdown
18 ifupdown2 is ifupdown re-written in Python. It replaces ifupdown and provides
19 the same user interface as ifupdown for network interface configuration.
20 Like ifupdown, ifupdown2 is a high level tool to configure (or, respectively
21 deconfigure) network interfaces based on interface definitions in
22 /etc/network/interfaces. It is capable of detecting network interface
23 dependencies and comes with several new features which are available as
24 new command options to ifup/ifdown/ifquery commands. It also comes with a new
25 command ifreload to reload interface configuration with minimum
26 disruption. Most commands are also capable of input and output in JSON format.
27 It is backward compatible with ifupdown /etc/network/interfaces format and
28 supports newer simplified format. It also supports interface templates with
29 python-mako for large scale interface deployments. See
30 /usr/share/doc/ifupdown2/README.rst for details about ifupdown2. Examples
31 are available under /usr/share/doc/ifupdown2/examples.
