11.5.0 release note says: "This release introduces a REST interface to iControl to remotely execute TMSH". If you can't find the information in 

show net vlan
, you won't be able to find it in iControl REST too.

If you want to execute 

bash
(unix) 
/sbin/ifconfig
, you can call 
/mgmt/tm/util/bash
. For example,

curl -sku admin:adminPass -X POST -H "Content-type: application/json" \

-d "{\"command\":\"run\", \"utilCmdArgs\":\"-c '/sbin/ifconfig'\"}" \

https://192.168.226.55/mgmt/tm/util/bash

The output looks ugly but it will do the job for you.
