This is my biggest concern - that there are non-inbox (I assume) dependencies for this code to run without a requirements.txt file or something similar to facilitate someone bootstrapping this correctly. Is it too much trouble to ask that you include a requirements.txt file, along with instructions on how to use it?

RHEL/Rocky 9.X and onward have moved away from using ifcfg network-script files, in favor of NetworkManager connection profiles (see /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/*.nmconnection for what those look like).

This small python script may be useful to some people requiring configuration of multiple, consecutive IP and ARP settings.
Only the starting IP address/netmask is required (either IPv4 or IPv6). The "flush" option can be given and this will
remove all IP address (ip addr flush) before adding an IP address. The "verbose" option just shows
more detail of the steps taken. The "dryrun" option will show the steps taken but will not actually configure anything.
You can also specify which devices you wish to configure as comma separated strings ("-d eth1,eth2,eth3").
More details are provided in the README file.
