+.Dt HOSTNAME.IF 5
+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm hostname.*
+and
+.Nm bridgename.*
+.Nd interface-specific configuration files
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+and
+.Nm bridgename.*
+files contain information regarding
+the configuration of each network interface.
+One file should exist for each interface that is to be configured,
+such as
+.Pa hostname.fxp0
+or
+.Pa bridgename.bridge0 .
+However, a configuration file is not needed for
+.Dv lo0 .
+.Pp
+Three data formats are permitted for these files.
+.Pp
+.Nm hostname.*
+files can accept the following two formats:
+.Pp
+Regular network setup:
+.Pp
+.Bd -literal -offset xxxx
+.Va addr_family Va addr Va netmask Va broadcast_addr Va options
+.Li dest Va dest_addr
+.Ed
+.Pp
+For example,
+.Bd -literal -offset xxxx
+inet 10.0.1.12 255.255.255.0 10.0.1.255 media 100baseTX
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The above format has the following field values:
+.Bl -tag -width indent -offset xxxx
+.It Va addr_family
+The address family of the interface, generally
+.Dq inet .
+.It Va addr
+The optional address that belongs to the interface, such as
+190.191.192.1.
+It is also feasable to use a hostname as specified in
+.Pa /etc/hosts .
+It is recommended that an address be used instead of symbolic information
+which might activate
+.Xr resolver 3
+library routines.
+.Pp
+If no address is specified, the
+.Va netmask ,
+.Va broadcast_addr ,
+.Li dest ,
+and
+.Va dest_addr
+options are invalid and will be ignored.
+.It Va netmask
+The optional network mask for the interface, ie.
+255.255.255.0.
+.It Va broadcast_addr
+The optional broadcast address for the interface, ie.
+190.191.192.255
+.It Va options
+Optional miscellaneous options to set on the interface, ie.
+.Dq media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex .
+.It Li dest
+If the interface needs a destination address address set, this is
+the literal text
+.Dq dest .
+.It Va dest_addr
+The destination address to be set on the interface, such as
+190.191.192.2.
+It is also feasable to use a hostname as specified in
+.Pa /etc/hosts .
+It is recommended that an address be used instead of symbolic information
+which might activate
+.Xr resolver 3
+library routines.
+.El
+.Pp
+A DHCP-configured network interface setup consists of
+.Pp
+.Bd -literal -offset xxxx
+.Li dhcp Va options
+.Ed
+.Pp
+For example,
+.Bd -literal -offset xxxx
+dhcp media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The options are as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width indent -offset xxxx
+.It Li dhcp
+The string
+.Dq dhcp
+if the interface is to be configured using DHCP.
+See
+.Xr dhclient 8
+and
+.Xr dhclient.conf 5
+for more details.
+.It Va options
+Optional miscellaneous options to set on the interface, ie.
+.Dq media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex .
+.El
+.Pp
+.Pp
+The final file format only applies to
+.Nm bridgename.bridge*
+files.
+A bridge interface setup consists of
+.Pp
+.Bd -literal -offset xxxx
+.Va firstline
+.Va brconfig-arguments
+.Va brconfig-arguments
+\&...
+.Ed
+.Pp
+For example,
+.Bd -literal -offset xxxx
+up
+add fxp0
+add ep1
+-learn fxp0
+.Ed
+.Pp
+The options are as follows:
+.Bl -tag -width indent -offset xxxx
+.It Va firstline
+The firstline of the bridge file contains a line like
+.Dq up media auto .
+.It Va brconfig-arguments
+.Xr brconfig 8
+is called for each successive line.
