Hi Rui,

It seems that http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/network-wireless.html 
does have some documentation on the configuration of host access points, 
which could benefit from adoption to this new configuration mode.

Were you proposing that you make these changes?  The relevant source file 
is 
doc/head/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/advanced-networking/chapter.xml.
