3.5. Testing the FreeBSD system
Congratulations! Once you've made it to this point, the FreeBSD system
is configured as a network-connected UNIX system! If you made any changes
to the /etc/sysconfig
file you should probably re-boot your FreeBSD system.
This will accomplish two important objectives:
- Allow the changes to the interface configurations to be applied, and
- Verify that the system restarts without any glaring configuration errors.
Once the system has been rebooted you should test the network interfaces.
