Never seen any modules to do this. Here's how I'd do it on NT 4 (and I hope there's an easier way than this...)

You'll want to use Win32::TieRegistry. Connect to
HKLM/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/Services/Tcpip/Linkage/

Look at the Bind (maybe Export, but Bind should work) value. The device is contained in the data.
Now, connect to
HKLM/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/Services/$device/Parameters/TcpipThe IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway are values within.

Use regedt32 to see these values, it will help you write the regex for the device.
