But it still waited 30s for "default route interface". I found the ${defaultroute_delay} variable in /etc/rc.d/defaultroute, which isn't documented, and set it to "1s" in /etc/rc.conf. This finally did the trick. However, the networking on FreeBSD machines started to come up even longer. I suspect this is because dhclient gradually increases the interval between DHCP requests if it doesn't get an answer. I haven't found a way to circumvent this. Any suggestions are welcome.
