--- Comment #4 from Eugene Grosbein <eugen at freebsd.org> ---
Use seems to use custom kernel and its configuration appears to miss driver for
ix. ifconfig loads driver for you. Make sure you load driver with
/boot/loader.conf so dhclient would find the interface.

Also, manual ifconfig invocation seemingly brings the interface UP. Make sure
you have corresponding "ifconfig_ifname" configuration lines in /etc/rc.conf
for every interface you use.

If this does not help, try using GENERIC kernel first and double-check your
local changes. Try disabling them all and test with GENERIC and clean config
first.
