[arch-general] systemd network configuration

Hi,

Because it's summer, and I'd really rather not try to figure all this
out during the school year, I'm trying to figure out systemd *now*,
rather than waiting until rc.conf goes away.

I actually had trouble with rc.conf when I first installed Arch on my
Linode. Some daemons mysteriously wouldn't start and I couldn't figure
out how to get the networking to come up properly. (And, of course, I
was in a hurry.) So I wound up hacking rc.local to bring up both the
network and the daemons. (Yes, I know: ewwwww!)

This is the shell snippet I'm using to bring up my network now:

rc.d start network #successfully gets some address and a route
for i in 74.207.225.79/32 74.207.227.150/32 173.230.137.73/32
173.230.137.76/32
do
	ip addr add "${i}" dev eth0
done
ip -6 addr add 2600:3c02::f03c:91ff:fe96:64e2/64 dev eth0
for j in $(seq 0 1)
do
	for i in $(seq 0 9) a b c d e f
	do
		ip -6 addr add "2600:3c02::02:70${j}${i}/64" dev eth0
	done
done

Basically, with the IPv4 address, my intent is to make sure I've got
all four of those addresses up. But I wasn't getting a route unless I
used the network start script.

In my copy of the Arch wiki, I"m not seeing how to do something
similar under systemd. How, ideally, should I be doing this?

Thanks!
