I am curious about the proper way of setting up an EtherChannel from startup scripts.
grep -R fec /etc/*   didnt provide me a hint.
So, all the EtherChannel configuration is in /etc/rc.local now:
$ cat /etc/rc.local
#!/bin/sh

/sbin/ifconfig bge0 media 100BaseTX mediaopt full-duplex up
/sbin/ifconfig bge1 media 100BaseTX mediaopt full-duplex up
/usr/sbin/ngctl -f /var/fec0.conf
/sbin/ifconfig fec0 inet x.x.x.x netmask 255.255.255.224 up
/sbin/route add default x.x.x.x
$ cat /var/fec0.conf
mkpeer fec dummy fec
msg fec0: add_iface "bge0"
msg fec0: add_iface "bge1"
msg fec0: set_mode_inet

The ngctl behavoir looks kinda strange also -- the catalyst produces warnings about speed changes from 100 to 10 and back while the netgraph script is running. Thats why I fixed the speed and duplex on both sides.
