I need to make several wholesale changes to a few different systems,

and reboot, but is there a canonical way to make the changes in
/etc/rc.conf and "reload" those changes to ensure everything is in a
known state?  From what I can determine, running netif stop/start
would work, but would require I do that locally.

You could also use the alias featue, adding the new ip, sshing into the new ip, and dump the old ip.
