For example, if you edit the network config and change a dhcp address to a static address, ifupdown won't kill the dhcp daemon for you. Or if you change the static address to a dhcp address - ifup will complain the interface is already up, and IIRC ifdown will complain that the daemon is not running.

Excellent example, thanks.
