Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Kiran 2017-02-09 00:01:20 UTC 
Description of problem:

We are using ifquery command in ubuntu to figure out the order in which bond interfaces need to be brought up for contrail dpdk-vrouter. Trying to do similar thing for RHEL-7 but unable to find the ifquery command.

On Red Hat only we use the commands and manage by Network Manager sometimes


ifup(8)                                                        System Administration tools and Daemons                                                       ifup(8)

NAME
       ifup - bring a network interface up

       ifdown - take a network interface down

SYNOPSIS
       ifup CONFIG [boot]

       ifdown CONFIG

DESCRIPTION
       The  ifup  and  ifdown  commands  may  be  used to configure (or, respec- tively, deconfigure) network interfaces based on interface definitions in the files
       /etc/sysconfig/network and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-<configuration>

       These scripts take one argument normally: the name of the configuration (e.g. eth0). They are called with  a  second  argument  of  "boot"  during  the  boot
       sequence so that devices that are not meant to be brought up on boot (ONBOOT=no, see below) can be ignored at that time.

FILES
       /etc/sysconfig/network

       /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-<configuration>
              The file defining an interface.

SEE ALSO
       /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt


/etc/network/interfaces are on  /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ at RHEL, you can find config files, ifup, ifdown but normally there are manage by Network Manager.

after command ip could configure many things

This isn't a PackageKit bug.
