Not all problems can be fixed by somebody else. Work a little for a

If you wish to name your interfaces switch to Windows.
ifconfig -a | awk '/^[a-z0-9^]*:/ {i=$1} /inet / {ip=$2;net=$4;}
/status/ {print i" "ip" - "net" - "$2}'
em0: 10.0.1.1 - 0xff000000 - active
em1: 69.x.x.x - 0xfffffff8 - active
em2: 64.x.x.x - 0xfffffff8 - active
em3: 192.168.3.1 - 0xffffff00 - active
em4: 206.x.x.x - 0xfffffff0 - active
