I might be in left field but...
in init.d create a script that simply
echo_ip
script contents
#!/bin/bash
ip -4 addr |grep inet |tee /var/log/ip # this will only print the ip
lines and copy to /var/log/ip ( I prefer tee over echo, for a variety of
reasons)
then create S99echo_ip in rc3.d
so that it runs last
