:)  you are right!

So I think I'll manage to replace the old and slow function using "netstat" by 
"ifconfig" as well as by "networksetup"
I have no idea, why the external programmer choose "netstat" at that time 
(2009). Does anybody see any pitfalls, why "ifconfig" or "networksetup" could 
return other results (after filtering, sorting etc.) or why I shouldn't use one 
of them? Are these commands the same available as netstat in modern Oss (> 
10.9)? networksetup seems to be the easiest solution and is fast as ifconfig.

Thanks for any advice
Tiemo

If you call it with no arguments, doesn't it list them all?  I'll have to get 
my mac running again so I can test this stuff.
