Linux: Any distro-independent way to configure IP settings?

Linux: Any distro-independent way to configure IP settings?

Are there any distribution-independent mechanisms for tasks like assigning static IP addresses, adding or deleting routes, etc and, then, also be able to persist the changes so made?
AFAIK, each Linux distro keeps its network settings in different file/dir structures, with maybe even different properties inside. While one can accomplish many things via commands like ifconfig, ip, route, etc I don't know how to persist/save their changes.
