As I thought while reading your message, awk seems to be
a good solution. Just a note:

You could start your awk skript with

        #!/usr/bin/awk

and give it +x attribute, as well as adding the desired source
command "netstat -nibd -f inet" to the script, using awk's system()
function, so you can start it more easily or use it in combination
with other commands.

        % ./netstuff.awk
