Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: net-tools

$ ifconfig -a | fgrep .27

No output.

$ ip addr ls | fgrep .27
    inet 140.147.222.27/24 brd 140.147.222.255 scope global secondary eth0:FWB5
$

Magic "secret" interface is revealed.

Note: first eth0:FWB5 interface conceals the second one

$ ip addr ls | grep FWB5$
    inet 140.147.222.234/24 brd 140.147.222.255 scope global secondary eth0:FWB5
    inet 140.147.222.27/24 brd 140.147.222.255 scope global secondary eth0:FWB5

vs.

$ ifconfig -a | grep 'FWB5 '
eth0:FWB5 Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 18:a9:05:5e:a0:88

(only one line of ifconfig -a output when two interfaces exist)
