That would be $interfaces["eth0"]["ip_address"] for eth0. For the new 
Cobbler, there's been quite some work on the networking setup. Maybe 
using the new network-snippets (see the provided sample kickstart) would 
suit your needs as well. Out of the box it can: configure interfaces, 
nameservers, gateways, hostnames, VLANs, bonding and interface renaming.
