you can do static ip configuration with bootargs like:

tcp!-g 192.168.0.1 ether /net/ether0 192.168.0.23 255.255.255.0

where 192.168.0.1 is the gateway, 192.168.0.23 is your static ip
address and 255.255.255.0 is the subnet mask.

everthing after tcp! is just passed as arguments to ipconfig.

you can even pass file and auth servers like that, just look up
ipconfig(8). thats why i dont understand the usefullness of
that new ipconfig= parameter.

if your machine boots from a local disk fileserver, then
you do not need this. you boot with local!/some/disk and
termrc sets up network from ndb, static or dynamic.
