I need to make several wholesale changes to a few different systems,

and reboot, but is there a canonical way to make the changes in
/etc/rc.conf and "reload" those changes to ensure everything is in a
known state? From what I can determine, running netif stop/start
would work, but would require I do that locally.
You pretty much need to be on the console rather than ssh'd in to make
those changes interactively. You can do them remotely via a cron job or at
job, but any mistake will require a trip to the console.
