ifconfig won't allow me to change ether address and inet address in the same command

[Eduardo Meyer]

Hello :)

Please, follow:

# ifconfig rl0 ether 00:02:4f:0a:ce:f3 inet 192.168.2.12 netmask 255.255.255.0
ifconfig: can't set link-level netmask or broadcast

# ifconfig rl0 inet 192.168.2.12 netmask 255.255.255.0 ether 00:02:4f:0a:ce:f3
ifconfig: ether: bad value

# ifconfig rl0 inet 192.168.2.12 netmask 255.255.255.0
# ifconfig rl0 ether 00:02:4f:0a:ce:f3

I ask you some help, how can I accomplish both tasks with rc_ng? In /etc/rc.conf

ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.2.12 netmask 255.255.255.0 ether 00:02:4f:0a:ce:f3"

Won't allow me to do what I want. Any suggestions? I would like like
to edit /etc/rc.local and any other kind of "workaround". Can rc.conf
issue ifconfig twice for the same nic?

Or can ifconfig accomplish this task by someway else other than
issuing the command twice?

Thank you.
