10.10. How do I get my 3C503 to use the other network port?

If you want to use the other ports, you'll have to specify an additional parameter on the ifconfig command line. The default port is ``link0''. To use the AUI port instead of the BNC one, use ``link2''. These flags should be specified using the ifconfig_* variables in /etc/rc.conf.
