If dmesg(1) reports that your device is there, it's available for use.
A `netstat -in' should list "rl0" as one of your available network
devices. To actually activate it you have to put in something in
/etc/rc.conf (which will automatically activate it after a reboot), eg:
ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.2.21 netmask 255.255.255.0"
Or manually set it as root with:
# ifconfig rl0 inet 192.168.2.21 netmask 255.255.255.0
Cheers.
