have a look for ip (it part of the iproute package)
Usage: ip addr {add|del} IFADDR dev STRING
ip addr {show|flush} [ dev STRING ] [ scope SCOPE-ID ]
[ to PREFIX ] [ FLAG-LIST ] [ label PATTERN ]
IFADDR := PREFIX | ADDR peer PREFIX
[ broadcast ADDR ] [ anycast ADDR ]
[ label STRING ] [ scope SCOPE-ID ]
SCOPE-ID := [ host | link | global | NUMBER ]
FLAG-LIST := [ FLAG-LIST ] FLAG
FLAG := [ permanent | dynamic | secondary | primary |
tentative | deprecated ]
