You can do this through sysinstall's Configuration -> Network ->
Interfaces dialog.

Or:

1.  Edit /etc/rc.conf to configure the IP address and netmask.
2.  Edit /etc/resolv.conf to configure the nameserver:

search yourdomain.com
nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
nameserver yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy

You might purchase The Complete FreeBSD from Walnut Creek.
