Everyone who voted got it correct. The ifconfig eth1 command will probe the second ethernet card (eth1) for it's network information, including it's IP Address, Netmask and Broadcast Address.

Commands
ifupdown (http://linux.about.com/cs/linux101/g/ifupdown.htm)
ping (http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmdl8_ping.htm)
traceroute (http://linux.about.com/cs/linux101/g/traceroute.htm) (not traceroot)
