The wireless example in lagg(4)'s manpage no longer works.
laggtype is not documented in the manpage other than in the example, so add a paragraph about it.
While here, move the section on rc.conf to a plan where it sits more logically.

|---|---|---|
| 198 | Because some WiFi interfaces won't allow setting the MAC address, the recommended procedure is now to set the Ethernet interface's address to the WiFi's. See example 3 in https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/advanced-networking/#network-aggregation. | |
| share/man/man4/lagg.4 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 197 | I would move the "up" to the line setting the ethernet MAC, just slightly cleaner to have the MAC set before the interface comes up. | |
| share/man/man4/lagg.4 | ||
|---|---|---|
| 197 | I wouldn't, because (as I mentioned below) wlan0's MAC address needs to be left unchanged and em0's needs to be adjused instead. The other way stopped working with 11.x, IIRC. | |
