If you use rc.conf to configure it, please read rc.conf(5) manual page carefully:

		 ... Interfaces that the
                 administrator wishes to store configuration for, but not
                 start at boot should be configured with the "NOAUTO" keyword
                 in their ifconfig_<interface> variables as described below.
