Those don't exist as part of the output of describe instances [3] and therefore you get something like the table below which is not terribly helpful unless you know the IP of the machine in question. AWS generally uses tags for things like that. They will prompt you to fill in a Name tag by default in the launch wizard. One possibility for Name could be to stick it in the PrivateDnsName, but not sure about the other 2.
