>Release:        FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE-p17 i386
>Organization:
Neil Darlow Consulting, UK
>Environment:
>Description:
/etc/rc.network groups interfaces marked "dhcp" and starts
the dhcp-program for them. It doesn't process any additional arguments that
have been passed on the ifconfig_* line of /etc/rc.conf e.g. media.
>How-To-Repeat:
ifconfig_rl0="dhcp media 10baseT/UTP"
>Fix:
/etc/rc.network should have some means of parsing interface
arguments/options for dhcp configured interfaces
