This is what the entry would look like in the rc.conf: ifconfig_rl1_alias1="inet 65.71.135.139 netmask 255.255.255.255" ...and, this is what # ifconfig rl1 would then show when above line is loaded: inet 65.71.135.138 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 65.71.135.139 What is the correct command syntax to add the above alias on the fly...??
