The new replacement for ifconfig is 'ip'; 'ip link show' is equivalent to the old 'ifconfig', without arguments.
I don't see the current assigned IP when doing 'ip link show' so I don't see how that is equivalent to using only ifconfig without arguments.
As a side note, at first glance it seems 'ip' needs a lot more typing than ifconfig needs, at least for the stuff I use more often.
You should use just use "ip addr" rather than "ifconfig" (which saves you one character ;-) ). -t
