If you use Debian /etc/network/interfaces, it is possible to use 
"pre-up" and "post-down" options for a particular interface e.g.,

auto ath0
iface ath0 inet dhcp
	pre-up prepare.sh
	post-down cleanup.sh

Shell script defined as "pre-up" is executed right before activation of 
 network interface, and shell script defined as "post-down" is executed 
right after disactivation of network interface.

Is this what you wanted to achieve?

Best,
Chris
