I've always felt that FreeBSD should have the equivalent of "cardctl scheme <schemename>" in Linux which lets you switch between different network configuration. It basically calls the network init script with the schemename and you could set up your params based on that. Once, many moons ago, I started on hacking up something like that, but it sorta fell by the wayside and I never worked up the energy to look at it again. Maybe I should, unless anyone knows of anything equivalent which already exists.
