Not needed - /etc/rc script does it basing on data from /etc/rc.conf.

See manual for details.
As for the naming conventions: each ethernet device:
* is not visible in /dev/ hierarchy - it's just an internal construct.
so don't attempt to do a MAKEDEV... :-)
* is named after appropriate driver, e.g. DEC21140-based device is called
de0, NE2000 is called ed0 etc...

There is no netstat in that release - it will be included in v.0.32 which
is due RSN.
