Firslty, is there a way to "link" interfaces by using some system variables like the one I can use for bridging interfaces ? i.e. sysctl net.link.ether.bridge_cfg=rl0,rl1. Then, according to the freebsd handbook it exist almost 500 system variables which can be read and set. Does it exist a paper or anything else that explain all that variables and why they are used ? best regards, Yannick
