Virtual ethernet and ispcp_network daemon

[rbtux]

we did implement something similar for our very simple script based solution.

We use a sql backend and the ip util to configure things on the fly... The main motivation was IPv6 as there were/are a lot of bugs in the network configurations scripts of the distributions. (like the stupid ipv6 secondaries directive in centos...)

With the ip command you can simply add ipaddress to an interface (you don't need this silly eth0:xx interfaces for alias addresses...)
