Thanks Charles.  Sorry, but how does one do that?

This is the current configuration of my card (with the IP nos x'd out):

# ifconfig tlp0
tlp0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
         address: 08:00:2b:e7:b5:17
         media: Ethernet 10baseT
         status: active
         inet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
         inet6 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx%tlp0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
