--- Comment #1 from Mark Johnston <markj@FreeBSD.org> ---
This proposal is too vague to be actionable.  For instance, how would "ifconfig
foo DHCP" be implemented?  What exactly are its effects?  I can think of some
answers to this (OpenBSD has an interface like this), but there are lots of
details to sort out, plus the question of backwards compatibility.

It's not clear what "WPA" would mean, isn't that just the authmode keyword?

This kind of discussion should happen on the freebsd-net mailing list:
