If you add a line:
auto eth0
Then it will come up on reboot too (or when you do an
/etc/init.d/networking start|restart)
Even cooler, you can add stanzas in that file and instead of giving it
the name eth0 you can use a name like "work" e.g.
iface work inet dhcp
and
iface home inet static
address 10.0.0.1
...etc...
Which means you can do
ifup eth0=work
and it will bring up the work definition and
ifup eth0=home
and it will bring up the home definition.
Cool!
