The 'ip' suite of commands is a Linux-native replacement for the
low-level BSD-originated network configuration commands (ifconfig,
route). It's not a replacement for ifupdown commands which configure
networking based on declarations found in /etc/network/interface and
files in /etc/network/interfaces.d
