I've been having trouble with a bridge interface. It seemed logical
to me to do
cloned_interfaces="bridge0"
ifconfig_bridge0="addm foo0 addm bar0 inet 10.0.0.1/24"
but ifconfig(8) does not accept "inet" after "addm".
(perhaps I should have put the inet bit at the front?)
In any case, I came up with a patch that allows me to do
ifconfig_bridge0="addm foo0; addm bar0; inet 10.0.0.1/24"
which translates into three different ifconfig invocations.
there's probably a better / cleaner way to do this...
