Hmm, I tried this but I can't work out the magic incantation to get it to do
it..
Here is what it currently is set to
metatron# ifconfig gif0
gif0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1452
tunnel inet 150.101.23.134 --> 203.16.215.227
inet6 fe80::240:c7ff:fe99:3a7c%gif0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6
metatron# ifconfig dc1
dc1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 150.101.23.134 netmask 0xfffffffc broadcast 150.101.23.135
inet6 fe80::240:c7ff:fe9a:1420%dc1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2
inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
ether 00:40:c7:9a:14:20
media: Ethernet autoselect (10baseT/UTP)
status: active
If I try and assign an IP to the tunnel I get..
metatron# ifconfig gif0 alias 150.101.23.134 netmask 255.255.255.255
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): Destination address required
metatron# ifconfig gif0 150.101.23.134 netmask 255.255.255.255
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): Destination address required
metatron# ifconfig gif0 150.101.23.134/32 203.16.215.227
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists
metatron# ifconfig gif0 alias 150.101.23.134/32 203.16.215.227
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists
