I appreciate the quick follow up. You were right, and this now work perfectly. Thank you for taking the time to respond to my question.

Thanks,

Gents,

Since the name changed for my cdce device, booting up the OS fails to obtain an address via dhcp on this interface. dhclient works normally after the machine is booted and I provide the command on the command line.

I've got the following in my rc.conf which I would have thought to be enough, but it doesn't matter as dhclient never gets run,

ifconfig_ue0="DHCP"

This isn't a deal breaker by any means, but would like to inquire about about the proper steps for getting dhclient to physically work on the ue0 interface. Docs on this subject (usb ethernet changes) at this point are scarce and I'm not sure what specifically needs to be done.

This generally means that ue0 never reports a link up event which means
dhclient never gets run.  If so, the driver is broken, but you may be
able to work around it by changing DHCP to SYNCDHCP.  In that case
it may work if the cable is plugged in when the device it attached.
