Thanks for your reply.

I am running FreeBSD 14.1 BETA 3, but with updates from git.  No jails 
involved.

I was trying to get rtw88 wifi driver to work, I finally figured it 
out.  But in the process I noticed wlan0 wasn't creating a default 
route, like when I enable re0 or re1.

I was trying this command on the host.  I read the man page and the 
handbook, but they show the command as I invoked it.

Anyway, since I figured out the rc.conf entries, wlan0 gets an IP adx 
from dhcp and creates a default route.
