of course one can run ip .... commands having the same result as the 
ifconfig thing, but
how would this go, when e.g. eth0 shall be up at OS startup?

e.g. /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route6-sit1
with this content
::/0 dev sit1
does the job automatically using ip ....
(ip route add ::/0 dev sit1)

you will find e.g. where one runs
iptables -A ....
ip6tables -A ...
or other firewall solutions;
but all this doesn't make any sense as long it is done automatically 
after OS startup;

no ip ... command?
