sed 's/192.168.1.4/v5c0/g
s/192.168.1.41/acc1/g' abc.sh 2>&1 | tee abc.sh

u meant to say you want to replace two different ips with different names????

Code:
sed -e 's/\<192.168.1.4\>/v5c0/g'  -e 's/192.168.1.41/acc1/g'  filename


If you want to read about sed search for sed 1 liner in this forum itself... you will get the link...
