Re: vke & link level addressing

:Would it be worth establishing a /etc/vkernel.conf file that contains
:different profiles (selecting DHCP, which /boot/loader.conf, etc) in the
:simple 'x=y' format above?
:
:Given profiles could be grouped by name in that file, and then the name of
:the profile could be supplied as the argument to the vkernel, saving a lot
:of typing.  Multiple vkernels with the same profile can then be created by
:specifying a class instead of explicit options every time, and we can ship
:with a default profile.

    Excellent idea, plus also add an option to allow a different conf file
    to be specified for flexibility.

    The format could be something simple like:

label:
    variable=data
    variable=data
    variable=data
    variable=data

label:
    ...
