Unfortunately I don't think there is a direct equivalent for this on FreeBSD.
This route protocol id on Linux allows let's say different routing
daemons to install routes with it's own protocol ID,
which can be used to select which one has priority.
I think similar proposals sparked some discussions about is the kernel
routing table a FIB or a RIB in the past.
