NAME
       ifup - bring a network interface up

       ifdown - take a network interface down

SYNOPSIS
       ifup IFACE [boot]

       ifdown IFACE

DESCRIPTION
       The  ifup  and  ifdown  commands	 may be used to configure (or, respec-
       tively, deconfigure) network interfaces based on interface  definitions
       in   the	  files	  /etc/sysconfig/network  and  /etc/sysconfig/network-
       scripts/ifcfg-<configuration>

       These scripts take one argument normally: the name of the configuration
       (e.g.  eth0).  They  are called with a second argument of "boot" during
       the boot sequence so that devices that are not meant to be  brought  up
       on boot (ONBOOT=no, see below) can be ignored at that time.

FILES
       /etc/sysconfig/network

       /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-<configuration>
	      The file defining an interface.
