I didn't find iproute2, but doing man ifconfig brings up a message
that this is obsolete, and to see ip addr and ip link.
Looking at the man pages for either of these shows each to be 1000 lines
or more, and, while I tried a batch of suggested commands, I
obviously don't understand what's going on. In no case did I get
anything useful.
What I'd really like to see is something like this:
192.168.1.100 HPLaserJet 2200dn
192.168.1.101 Epson WP4530
192.168.1.104 TV Blu-ray player
(Obviously, these are not necessarily what the ips really are--that's
what I'd like to find out!)
Looking at pages in PCLOS.
