You should need to enter a password to change the MTU.  Of course, you
can just run /sbin/ifconfig at any time without root access to see what
interfaces are up or not.

And, such functionality is already in bash, if you want to use it.
Place the following command in your .profile / .bash_profile / .bashrc
(whichever is configured to run on your system) file:

alias ifconfig='sudo ifconfig'
