[ltp] Question on ifplugd and ACPI suspend

I like ifplugd which monitors my eth0 and brings up/down the interface 
if its plugged/unplugged.

There is one case which is not working though.

1) Interface is up and running at home with address A
2) I suspend
3) Plug into my office LAN
4) Address remains A

At this point if I manually unplug the cable and then plug back in 
ifplugd correctly intervenes and assigns address B to eth0.

Can I force ifplugd to check things after a suspend (using swsusp2).

Thank you,
Bob
