Whats the equivalent to ipconfig /release & ipconfig /renew in Linux? Are there similar switches for ifconfig? Thanks

Maybe you can try with ifup / ifdown. They bring the interface up and down respectively, so it will get the default configuration. You can also make an ifconfig eth0 IP/MASK up and it will bring the device up with the configuration you provided.

Hope it helps.
