NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.

And this is why technical questions should not be asked on the newbies
list.  This is wrong, and will not work.  Ask technical questions on
the freebsd-questions list, otherwise you will receive possibly
incorrect info, such as the above.

Please read the man page for ifconfig to see why.  (You have the wrong
netmask for the aliases.)
