I wouldn't use grep for those, I'd use the other commands that display them directly.

That's a rather specific question/list, is this a homework question? If so, what have you tried?

What do you mean, "the individual data"? For a separate interface? Did you try checking the manpage for ifconfig?

grep merely searches, and outputs info it finds from whatever you feed it. It's probably no help here.

ifconfig should give you 95% of what you're looking for.

Are you looking to have it nicely formatted or something? You'll probably need to write a bash or perl script to do that.

I would use ifconfig and pipe the results through sed.

Still doesn't get the info he needs from /etc/hosts. It'd require a couple commands, or a small script to do that.
