I think that's Ubuntu-specific; even though ifup@.service is
installed on Debian systems, at least on my Jessie box it's
never been activated (on a system that actually uses
/etc/network/interfaces) - at least systemctl says so.

systemd just starts /etc/init.d/networking on my systems (the
same script that is also used under Wheezy, Squeeze, Lenny,
etc.) and that in turn calls ifup in the same way it has
previously been called under Wheezy etc.

I don't see it starting ifup@.service anywhere.

Michael, what's up with that service?
