IFconfig command not available on 5.0?

[leovinci81]

Trying to execute ifconfig command on proxmox, but not recognised ...
(can install it trough apt-get I assume, but strange it's not there ;..?)

Ifconfig deprecated, thats Debian change from 8->9.

ifconfig is not supported anymore:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ifconfig

Some Linux distributions have deprecated the use of ifconfig and route in favor of the software suite iproute2,[3] which has been available since 1999 for Linux 2.2.[4] iproute2 includes support for all common functions of ifconfig(8), route(8), arp(8) and netstat(1). It also includes multicast configuration support, tunnel and virtual link management, traffic control, and low-level IPsec configuration, among other features.
