The ifconfig program hasn’t gone away completely. It’s no longer installed by default, but it is available in the “net-tools” package.
To install it do:
apt-get net-tools
Of course, it would be a good idea to read the man page for ip(8) sometime soon. Lot’s more useful features, and it seems to be the wave of the future in network admin these days.
Enjoy!
