First: why do you need to use ethertap and not tuntap? ethertap is for many reasons worse, slower, and less secure.
Second (which is a consequence): ethertap was deprecated, so while it's possible that you didn't find the .config option, it could have been removed. I'm not checking right now in absence of a reason. -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
