>Description:
According to ale(4) man page:
... "To view a list of media types and options supported by the card, try 
ifconfig <device> media. For example, ifconfig ale0 media." ...

There isn't such usage of ifconfig media parameter. Use -m parameter instead.
>How-To-Repeat:
man ale
>Fix:
It can be changed to "To view a list of media types and options supported by 
the card, try ifconfig -m <device>. For example, ifconfig -m ale0.
