I should have thought to do 'man interfaces' before today. :) I'm not used to doing 'man <name of file>', rather 'man <command>'.
Suggestion -- the default interfaces file should have something like what is shown below already there, only commented out and something telling people to 'man interfaces' for even more help.
Thank you to Greg and Marc.
