Is it possible to force a name onto an unnamed node? I would like to use ng_vlan 
together with ng_fec, but since ng_fec does not seem to provide any hooks I thought I 
could create an ng_ether node and use that. However, the ng_ether node cannot capture 
the name 'fec0' since it is already in use by the fec node itself.

I have been able to create a round robin channel with vlans using ng_one2many, but I 
would like to use etherchannel since at least some of my switches support the fec 
implementation.

A somewhat related question - does anyone know what the "Cisco-proprietary hashing 
algorithm" is for the etherchannel implementation on new Catalyst devices? Their 
documentation suggests that they aren't doing an XOR on the last 2 bits of the MAC 
addresses anymore.
