so add a short section that describes how to use the loader to achieve
the same effect as a kernel rebuild with:
options IPFIREWALL
options IPDIVERT
options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT
* Move a few <indexterm> elements before the paragraph that mentions
them. I'm not sure if this has any effect on the index link
location, but we usually write index terms before the relevant
paragraph.
and unsupported 6.x releases. Tom started this process a while ago
and I'll follow up on that for the latest EoL round.
The old versions can still be found in the doc archives:
http://docs.freebsd.org/doc/
- Add some noise levels different from 0 since 7.X and above should
correctly display these informations;
- Stick the ifconfig(8)'s inet part at the end of each command line.
The inet setting does an implicit "up" to the interface before
setting the rest of parameters leading sometimes to issues. This is
a bug, marking the interface up last is a workaround to that
issue. This change nothing to the doc since the parameters order
should not be important, but may reduce the problems for the readers
using cut&paste. [1]

Without encryption, WPA-PSK and WEP APs are covered.
Instructions for EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS and EAP-PEAP based APs will be added
in future

driver has been removed. The two last advanced bridging features
documented at the end of the page will be available on 6.3-R (in fact
one will be MFC next week and the other one with 6.3-R), but I chose
to not add "this feature is avaiblable on 6.3 blah blah" since they
are advanced features for experts and since they will be available on
RELENG_6 soon.

While here, also fix a couple of other typos/nits.

The old section is completely replaced with this new one.
For the moment "FreeBSD as AP" is not covered (I'm working on it), but
FreeBSD clients configuration and troubleshooting are detailled (how
to find AP, basic settings with or without DHCP, authentication
methods: WEP, WPA-PSK, WPA-TLS, WPA-TTLS and PEAP, IBSS mode is also
discussed).
This huge section would not exist without the help of
loader@freebsdmall.com, murray@ and of course sam@
o Remove 4.X information, this includes notes and sections.
o Update documentation to reflect 5.X and 6.X.
o In some areas, try to make the new content version agnostic.
o Skip areas stating "5.[0-5] and later" as it's relevant - we
need a better way to handle these.
For several items, I checked the NOTES files, manual pages,
CVS history, etc.
