47 Instead, it is included by the
48 various generic startup scripts in

56 .Pa /etc/defaults/rc.conf ,
57 which specifies the default settings for all the available options.
58 Options need only be specified in
60 when the system administrator wishes to override these defaults.
62 .Pa /etc/rc.conf.local

119 This variable can be helpful in diagnosing mistakes when
120 editing or integrating new scripts.
121 Beware that this produces copious output to the terminal and

128 Informational messages are displayed when
129 a condition that is not serious enough to warrant a warning or
137 when faststart is used (e.g., at boot time).
138 .It Va early_late_divider
140 The name of the script that should be used as the
141 delimiter between the
145 stages of the boot process.
146 The early stage should contain all the services needed to
147 get the disks (local or remote) mounted so that the late

168 Extreme care should be taken when changing this value,
169 and before changing it one should ensure that there are
170 adequate provisions to recover from a failed boot
171 (such as physical contact with the machine,
172 or reliable remote console access).
173 .It Va always_force_depends
177 scripts use the force_depend function to check whether required
178 services are already running, and to start them if necessary.
179 By default during boot time this check is bypassed if the
180 required service is enabled in
181 .Pa /etc/rc.conf[.local] .
182 Setting this option will bypass that check at boot time and
183 always test whether or not the service is actually running.
184 Enabling this option is likely to increase your boot time if
185 services are enabled that utilize the force_depend check.

1159 variable to anything other than the default is deprecated.
1160 Interfaces that the administrator wishes to store configuration for,
1161 but not start at boot should be configured with the

1165 variables as described below.
1168 .Va ifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface
1169 variable is also assumed to exist for each value of
1171 When an interface name contains any of the characters
1173 they are translated to
1176 The variable can contain arguments to
1178 as well as special case-insensitive keywords described below.
1179 Such keywords are removed before passing the value to
1181 while the order of the other arguments is preserved.
1183 It is possible to add IP alias entries using
1185 syntax with the address family keyword such as
1187 Assuming that the interface in question was
1189 it might look something like this:
1191 ifconfig_ed0_alias0="inet 127.0.0.253 netmask 0xffffffff"
1192 ifconfig_ed0_alias1="inet 127.0.0.254 netmask 0xffffffff"
1195 It also possible to configure multiple IP addresses in Classless
1196 Inter-Domain Routing
1199 whose each address component can be a range like
1200 .Li inet 192.0.2.5-23/24
1202 .Li inet6 2001:db8:1-f::1/64 .
1203 This notation allows address and prefix length part only,
1204 not the other address modifiers.
1205 Note that the maximum number of the generated addresses from a range
1206 specification is limited to an integer value specified in
1207 .Va netif_ipexpand_max
1210 because a small typo can unexpectedly generate a large number of addresses.
1211 The default value is
1213 It can be increased by adding the following line into
1216 netif_ipexpand_max="4096"
1220 .Li 192.0.2.5-23/24 ,
1221 the address 192.0.2.5 will be configured with the
1222 netmask /24 and the addresses 192.0.2.6 to 192.0.2.23 with
1223 the non-conflicting netmask /32 as explained in the
1226 Note that this special netmask handling is only for
1228 not for the other address families such as
1231 With the interface in question being
1233 an example could look like:
1235 ifconfig_ed0_alias2="inet 192.0.2.129/27"
1236 ifconfig_ed0_alias3="inet 192.0.2.1-5/28"
1242 .Va ipv4_addrs_ Ns Aq Ar interface
1243 variable was supported for IPv4 CIDR address notation.
1244 It is now deprecated because the functionality was integrated into
1245 .Va ifconfig_ Ns Ao Ar interface Ac Ns Va _alias Ns Aq Ar n
1247 .Va ipv4_addrs_ Ns Aq Ar interface
1248 is still supported for backward compatibility.

1261 ifconfig_ed0_alias4="inet 127.0.0.254 netmask 0xffffffff"
1264 Then note that alias4 would
1266 be added since the search would
1267 stop with the missing
1270 Because of this difficult to manage behavior,
1272 .Va ifconfig_ Ns Ao Ar interface Ac Ns Va _aliases
1273 variable, which has the same functionality as
1274 .Va ifconfig_ Ns Ao Ar interface Ac Ns Va _alias Ns Aq Ar n
1275 and can have all of entries in a variable like the following:

1391 If you want to configure your wireless interface with
1392 .Xr wpa_supplicant 8
1393 for use with WPA, EAP/LEAP or WEP, you need to add
1396 .Va ifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface
1399 On the other hand, if you want to configure your wireless interface with
1404 .Va ifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface

1410 Finally, you can add
1412 options in this variable, in addition to the

1415 For instance, to configure an
1417 wireless device in station mode with an address obtained
1418 via DHCP, using WPA authentication and 802.11b mode, it is
1419 possible to use something like:

1484 Note that it is not always necessary to set this variable to
1486 to use IPv6 functionality on
1488 In most cases, just configuring
1489 .Va ifconfig_ Ns Ao Ar interface Ac Ns _ipv6
1494 all interfaces which do not have a corresponding
1495 .Va ifconfig_ Ns Ao Ar interface Ac Ns _ipv6
1496 variable will be marked as
1499 This means that all of IPv6 functionality on that interface
1500 is completely disabled to enforce a security policy.
1501 If the variable is set to
1503 the flag will be cleared on all of the interfaces.
1505 In most cases, just defining an
1506 .Va ifconfig_ Ns Ao Ar interface Ac Ns _ipv6
1507 for an IPv6-capable interface should be sufficient.
1508 However, if an interface is added dynamically
1509 .Pq by some tunneling protocols such as PPP, for example ,
1510 it is often difficult to define the variable in advance.
1511 In such a case, configuring the
1513 flag can be disabled by setting this variable to

1535 Normally manual configuration of this variable is not needed.
1537 .It Va ipv6_cpe_wanif
1539 If the variable is set to an interface name,
1543 .Dq inet6 -no_radr accept_rtadv
1544 will be added to the specified interface automatically before evaluating

1549 .Va net.inet6.ip6.rfc6204w3
1551 .Va net.inet6.ip6.no_radr
1554 This means the specified interface will accept ICMPv6 Router
1555 Advertisement messages on that link and add the discovered
1556 routers into the Default Router List.
1557 While the other interfaces can still accept RA messages if the
1558 .Dq inet6 accept_rtadv
1559 option is specified, adding
1560 routes into the Default Router List will be disabled by

1578 .It Va ifconfig_ Ns Ao Ar interface Ac Ns _ipv6
1580 IPv6 functionality on an interface should be configured by

1582 instead of setting ifconfig parameters in
1583 .Va ifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface .
1584 If this variable is empty, all of IPv6 configurations on the
1585 specified interface by other variables such as

1600 Interfaces that have an
1601 .Dq Li inet6 accept_rtadv
1603 .Va ifconfig_ Ns Ao Ar interface Ac Ns _ipv6
1604 setting will be automatically configured by SLAAC
1605 .Pq StateLess Address AutoConfiguration
1611 Note that a link-local address will be automatically configured in
1612 addition to the configured global-scope addresses because the IPv6
1613 specifications require it on each link.
1614 The address is calculated from the MAC address by using an algorithm
1621 If only a link-local address is needed on the interface,
1622 the following configuration can be used:
1624 ifconfig_ed0_ipv6="inet6 auto_linklocal"
1627 A link-local address can also be configured manually.
1628 This is useful for the default router address of an IPv6 router
1629 so that it does not change when the network interface
1633 ifconfig_ed0_ipv6="inet6 fe80::1 prefixlen 64"
1635 .It Va ipv6_prefix_ Ns Aq Ar interface
1637 If one or more prefixes are defined in
1638 .Va ipv6_prefix_ Ns Aq Ar interface
1639 addresses based on each prefix and the EUI-64 interface index will be
1640 configured on that interface.
1641 Note that this variable will be ignored when
1642 .Va ifconfig_ Ns Ao Ar interface Ac Ns _ipv6
1645 For example, the following configuration
1647 ipv6_prefix_ed0="2001:db8:1:0 2001:db8:2:0"
1650 is equivalent to the following:
1652 ifconfig_ed0_alias0="inet6 2001:db8:1:: eui64 prefixlen 64"
1653 ifconfig_ed0_alias1="inet6 2001:db8:1:: prefixlen 64 anycast"

1655 ifconfig_ed0_alias3="inet6 2001:db8:2:: prefixlen 64 anycast"
1658 These Subnet-Router anycast addresses will be added only when
