NIC problem

I just ran into an unusual problem, and I need some help. I am trying to
integrate a firewall in my network, based on 5.2.1.Release and Ipfilter.
I actually had everything working, and did something that I think caused
my problem. I tried to ssh into my firewall and I accidentally used the
wrong interface. Instead of connecting to the NIC connected to the LAN,
I tried to connect to the outside interface.
Now, somehow there is an option for VLAN when I type ifconfig.
Right under the line for rl0 I see this:
options=8<VLAN_MTU>
What is this, and what does it mean. How do I get rid of it? I tried to
do ifconfig rl0 destroy, but that doesn't work.
How can I recreate the rl0 interface without the VLAN option?
I could really use some help on this one! Any advice is appreciated!
TIA
Andy
