Here's mine /etc/rc.conf from work's router (shorted):

defaultrouter="192.168.65.4"
gateway_enable="YES"
hostname="storage.solink.office"
ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.1.1  netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_rl1="inet 192.168.66.166 netmask 255.255.240.0"
inetd_enable="YES"
keymap="ru.koi8-r"
keyrate="fast"
linux_enable="YES"
mousechar_start="3"
moused_enable="YES"
saver="logo"
scrnmap="koi8-r2cp866"
sshd_enable="YES"
usbd_enable="YES"

And here is mine from notebook:

font8x14="cp866-8x14"
font8x16="cp866b-8x16"
font8x8="cp866-8x8"
hostname="notebook.bochasnet.academ.local"
ifconfig_rl0="DHCP"
keymap="ru.koi8-r"
keyrate="fast"
linux_enable="YES"
mousechar_start="3"
moused_enable="YES"
saver="logo"
scrnmap="koi8-r2cp866"
sshd_enable="YES"
usbd_enable="YES"


As you can see on the first one i heve static IP and default router specified, 
and on the second i have dynamic parameters.
