An
.Va ifconfig_ Ns Aq Ar interface

It is also possible to add IP alias entries here in cases where
multiple IP addresses registered against a single interface
are desired.

Such keywords are removed before passing the value to

One can configure more than one IPv4 address with the
.Va ipv4_addrs_ Ns Aq Ar interface
variable.
One or more IP addresses must be provided in Classless Inter-Domain
Routing (CIDR) address notation, whose last byte can be a range like
192.168.0.5-23/24.
In this case the address 192.168.0.5 will be configured with the
netmask /24 and the addresses 192.168.0.6 to 192.168.0.23 with
the non-conflicting netmask /32 as explained in the
.Xr ifconfig 8
alias section.
