Hi,

$ grep sk0 /etc/rc.conf.local
ifconfig_sk0="DHCP"

When booting up or netif restart:

Starting Network: lo0 sk0.
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384
        options=3<RXCSUM,TXCSUM>
        inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5
        inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
sk0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
        options=b<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU>
        ether 00:11:22:33:44:55
        media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
        status: no carrier
                ^^^^^^^^^^

Please note that on older versions of FreeBSD it printed 'status: active' and also IP address obtained via DHCP. The same now happens whether booting up or restarting via /etc/rc.d/netif and is a bit confusing at best. Other network services starting on boot seem to be not affected at least.

Regards,

Martin
