If I use ifconfig_eth0="..." In my /etc/conf.d/network then my interface comes up fine (though the broadcast address I think is wrong). If I instead use ip_eth0="..." I get: /etc/init.d/network: line 115: intup: command not found Object "set" is unknown, try "ip help" * Setting default route .... SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable My interface is configured (though with "weird" broadcast address again) but the interface is not "up" so I am not able to access anything on the network. I must manually use "ip link set eth0 up" and then manually set up my routes in order to access the netowrk. I also think, in the above example, that my broadcast address should in fact be 192.168.31.255 but with both ifconfig and iproute2 I get a broadcast address of 0.0.0.0 which I assume to mean I cannot broadcast to my local subnet. If you want I will open a separate bug report for that.
