AFAIK, are currently broken:
* raw module: don't load
* arp, ping & traceroute: don't work, due to raw module issue
* libnetapi: no BNetEndpoint class yes, so any BeOS apps reliying on this C++ 
socket wrapper will failed on "Symbol missing"
* libnet.so DNS resolver: don't work well, so use only absolute IP address...

Should work:
* ifconfig: you should see interfaces (-a options), loopback and your 
  ethernet card, and you should be able to set interfaces up, down, ip address
(es) and mask(s).
* route: you should see routes, and be able to modify/add/delete them.
* ipv4, icmp, upd and tcp protocols should works.
* netpositive: was reported to work. I never reproduce this *feature* myself...
