Tom's Hardware ☛ How to manage Linux network connections via the terminal
We take graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for granted. They generally “just work” and we can largely go about our business without even thinking. The Linux networking GUI is very much now in this camp. We were there when networking with Linux was a chore, heck we remember setting up PPP to connect to the Internet via a modem, in Linux!

The ip command is the replacement to the ifconfig command and we can use ip to control all aspects of networking. In this how to we will show you how to use the command for many basic, yet essential networking tasks.
