Well, it is not a graphical tool, but if
you are OK with doing things from the command-line,
you can create a bridge network device and create
tap interfaces for each BHyve VM.  Then inside your BHyve VM,
you can use the vtnet driver (part of virtio) to access the network.

Michael Dexter has written a nice document which explains how to do this
and a lot more with BHyve: http://bhyve.org/bhyve-manual.pdf
