Networks don't have associated devices. 

You need to add ed0 to your kernel config and rebuilt/install/reboot.

You'll also need to add ed0 your network_interfaces line in your
/etc/rc.conf and add a line:

ifconfig_ed0="inet xx.xx.xx.xx netmask yy.yy.yy.yy"

Do that before you reboot and it should come up. 

If you are just using the generic kernel and ed0 is enabled:
As root:
ifconfig ed0 inet xx.xx.xx.xx netmask yy.yy.yy.yy up


BTW, many people would take offence to your statement in this
messages.
