-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi, It seems that in 9.x the preferred way of configuring an IPv6 enabled interface have been changed from ipv6_ifconfig_<ifname> to ifconfig_<ifname>_ipv6, and there is no corresponding way of configuring aliases as they are merged into ifconfig_<ifname>_alias<X>. Will ipv6_ifconfig_<ifname> and _alias be removed in 10, or they would stay for a while? This would need some changes in third party software like FreeNAS and ifconfig_<ifname>_ipv6 is not yet supported in 8.x I think.
