|Under RedHat Linux I can configure an interface, routes and so on in
|/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1,
|/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/routes-eth1 then simply run:
|
|$ ifup eth1
|
|and it will set all the routes/netconfig/aliases I just configured.
|
|Is there something similar in FreeBSD?
|
|I tried configuring aliases in /etc/rc.conf and running:
|
|$ /etc/rc.d/netif restart
|
|but that just ended in errors that the route was already configured
|and so on. Sure I could do all the work manually with ifconfig and
|route but that's not my question.
|
Under FreeBSD (as well as under Linux) you could use Zebra (Zebra/Quagga 
projects) to configure any interfaces/routing specific things.
