=== esv_ is now known as esv | ||
JanC | <tomreyn> "ip link" rather than "ifconfig -a" nowadays | 16:29 |
JanC | shouldn't that be "for the last 15 years" or so instead of "nowadays" | 16:29 |
JanC | ;) | 16:29 |
tomreyn | let's say 'for a good while' | 16:30 |
tomreyn | but nowadays, too | 16:30 |
leftyfb | I'll be honest, I only transitioned after xenial :) | 16:54 |
leftyfb | the output of ifconfig IS a lot easier to read | 16:55 |
leftyfb | hell, just spacing the interfaces out would be an improvement | 16:56 |
leftyfb | and TIL of -br. That's a lot nicer if all you're looking for is an ip | 16:59 |
JanC | :) | 16:59 |
JanC | indeed | 17:00 |
leftyfb | the default colors of -c are awful | 17:00 |
JanC | ip can output to JSON too, so it should also be easy to create your own custom commands if you want | 17:04 |
leftyfb | true | 17:04 |
leftyfb | love me some jq | 17:04 |
JanC | having exactly the info & colours you prefer :-) | 17:04 |
leftyfb | but -br is a lot easier | 17:04 |
JanC | if it has all you need | 17:05 |
daftykins | frankly the loss of ifconfig was not progression imo | 20:48 |
daftykins | i no longer know how to statically address an interface after bringing it up via CLI - and this is a crying shame | 20:48 |
Bashing-om | daftykins: It's now ' ip ' to take the place of ifconfig . | 20:53 |
daftykins | oh yeah i very regularly use 'ip a' but i don't know enough to assign | 20:54 |
