Setting primary ip address with ifconfig

Hello,
I have a server with two ip addresses. I need to make the ip address that's currently the secondary the primary. How do I use the ifconfig command and primary option?
Thanks.

NAME
miredo-server.conf - configuration for miredo-server SYNOPSIS
miredo-server.conf DESCRIPTON
miredo-server.conf is the configuration file for miredo-server. Each configuration directive consists of one directive name, possibly followed by one or several spaces and a value for the directive. White spaces, empty lines and lines starting with '#' are ignored. Directives are case-insensitive. A comprehensive list of the supported directives follows: SERVER OPTIONS
ServerBindAddress server_ip Specifies the primary IPv4 address of the Teredo server. miredo-server will bind to UDP/IPv4 port 3544 on this address and waits for packets from Teredo clients. It will advertise the Teredo prefix which is defined with the Prefix directive. A Teredo server needs two subsequent IPv4 addresses. It will wait for UDP IPv4 packets on port 3544 on both addresses. server_ip specifies the lowest of both IPv4 addresses, which is known as the primary IPv4 server address. The secondary IPv4 address should be server_ip + 1 and must also be assigned to the server. ServerBindAddress2 server_ip2 It is possible to specify a secondary IPv4 server address manually. However, Miredo clients will need manual configuration (with the ServerAddress2 directive in miredo.conf). Other Teredo clients are believed not to support such setup. Prefix teredo_prefix This directive specifies the Teredo prefix which the Teredo relay and/or server will advertise. teredo_prefix must be a valid IPv6 prefix. The default value is 2001:0000::. A 32-bits prefix is required to use this option. Since you do not have such big an IPv6 prefix YOU WILL NOT USE THIS OPTION. Moreover, certain third party Teredo client implementations require the default prefix. InterfaceMTU mtu This directive overrides the value of the MTU that is advertised to Teredo clients. The default value is 1280 bytes and should not be changed if the default Teredo prefix is used. YOU MUST NOT USE THIS OPTION with the default prefix. This would break interoperability with most Teredo relays. SyslogFacility facility Specify which syslog's facility is to be used by miredo-server for logging. Possible values are: daemon (the default), local0, ... local7, kern and user (see syslog(2)). SEE ALSO
