The following appears in the rc.conf(5) manpage:

swapfile
        (str) If set to NO then no swapfile is installed, otherwise
        the value is used as the full pathname to a file to use for
        additional swap space.

However, you probably want a bit more help than that. :-)

Check out the FAQ at http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/admin.html, specifically
"How can I add more swap space?"

Ciao,
Sheldon.
