You'll need the Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration class and,
for ease, the wmi module from here:

http://timgolden.me.uk/python/wmi.html

<code>
import wmi

c = wmi.WMI ()

for i in c.Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration (IPEnabled=True):
   print i

You'll need things like the .SetGateways method. You can see
all the methods thus:

print "\n".join (i.methods)

and if you print any of them, it will show its signature:

print i.SetGateways
