I would use three of these sections, one with the serial number of each 
interface.  So:

action "ifconfig $device-name name wan inet ..."
action "ifconfig $device-name name dmz inet ..."
action "ifconfig $device-name name lan inet ..."

Then the interface names can be easily used in firewall settings.
