 1.17  18-Dec-2014  roy Remove redundant configuration snippet for dhclient and rtsol as dhcpcd will happily supply both needs.

in rc.conf(5) instead.
 1.15  07-Apr-2011  jym branches: 1.15.4; 1.15.6; 1.15.8; 1.15.10;
Be more precise on the chars accepted for xxN in /etc/ifconfig.xxN

 1.14  26-Sep-2010  apb Collapse <abckslash><newline> sequences in /etc/ifconfig.xxx files read
by /etc/rc.d/network. Fixes PR 41662 by Christoph Badura, which was

to match other examples.
 1.12  08-Jan-2009  jakllsch Move the 'dhcp' example so it doesn't disrput flow

bump date.
 1.11  20-Sep-2008  apb branches: 1.11.2;
* Allow multiple commands in $ifconfig_xxN variables in rc.conf(5).
This may be done either by embedding newlines in the value,
or by using semicolons to represent line breaks (but not both at once).
* Allow shell quoting insode $ifconfig_xxN variables or /etc/ifconfig.xxN
files. This allows something like ifconfig_wi0="ssid 'my network'; dhcp"
 1.10  29-May-2008  joerg Allow per-interface DHCP configuration using dhcpcd via
ifconfig_xxN=dhcp or a dhcp line in /etc/ifconfig.xxN.

copyright holders involved.
 1.8  24-Nov-2005  rpaulo branches: 1.8.20; 1.8.22; 1.8.24;
RFC 3879 deprecated the IPv6 site-local prefix (fec0::/10):
* remove all references to $ip6sitelocal and output a warning
message if the variable is defined.
* introduce $ip6uniquelocal (defaults to 'NO') that will control the
behaviour of the system when $ip6mode is ``router'' (i.e. fc00::/7
will not be routed if the variable is ``NO'') as per RFC 4193.

Thanks to Jonathan A. Kollasch for pointing this out in PR 32152.
 1.7  13-Oct-2002  wiz Bump date for automatic create; new sentence fixes.
 1.6  05-Oct-2002  tron Automatically create and destroy cloning interfaces and sync IP Filter

a small security gap existing in the previous scheme where IP Filter
was synced after all cloning interfaces were created and brought up.
 1.5  14-Dec-2001  wiz branches: 1.5.2;
Add two keywords "netmask" in examples. Fixes PR #14930.
