Command to reconnect to Ethernet?

[Subito Piano]

Hi all...i am writing a script and need to know the command to restart the (wired) network. I've searched, and though i'm in TahrPup, the usual Debian commands don't seem to work. I found networkdisconnect in a subfolder of /etc, so i can use that to disconnect, but found no "networkreconnect" (or whatever it would be called) to reconnect.

Thanks in advance.

Hello , this post is quiet old ! but it can help someone :

To activated your connection via ethernet(eth0,...) or wifi(wlan0,...)

Code: Select all

List of all interfaces : ifconfig -a 

Code: Select all

Activate the ethernet connection : ifconfig eth0 up 

Code: Select all

Desactivate the ethernet connection : ifconfig eth0 down 

All same for wifi change eth0 by the interface wlan0,wlan1,....
