Depends on your distro, check the docs of yours, it should be
mentioned in the networking documentation.

Interfaces and routes are usually brought up in the startup init scripts
(/etc/rc* and /etc/init.d). Typically the script scans some config
files in /etc hierarchy and then brings up the interface according to the
settings. Both init scripts and the place and name of config files may
change from a distro to another. For rpm based distros they are typically
stored in /etc/sysconfig/network and /etc/sysconfig/network-interfaces/*
and in deb based distros they are in /etc/network/*

An alternative is issuing "grep -r ifconfig /etc/rc* /etc/init.d" and grep
-r ifup /etc/rc* /etc/init.d" and looking into the init scripts revealed.
Directly or indirectly, they should lead you to the actual config files
used. This method requires more toil, but it works regardless of the
distro at hand, and it could be quite an enlightening experience.

Oops, that should be /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/*
