 <para>
  You can use <xref linkend="opt-networking.localCommands"/> to specify shell
  commands to be run at the end of <literal>network-setup.service</literal>.
  This is useful for doing network configuration not covered by the existing
  NixOS modules. For instance, to statically configure an IPv6 address:
<programlisting>
<xref linkend="opt-networking.localCommands"/> =
  ''
    ip -6 addr add 2001:610:685:1::1/64 dev eth0
  '';
</programlisting>
