3.2 Configuring the interface

I'll tell you here what's to do to get up your network connection. Later I'll tell you how you can set this up permanently in `/etc/rc' etc., see section 3.5 How to use the above on `/etc/*'?.

Before configuring any network-device, let's first configure the loopback device:

# ifconfig lo0 inet 127.0.0.1

By now, you should be able to ping 127.0.0.1.
