FreeBSD does not have NetworkManager, which slightly complicates the situation for network configuration in the GUI since there isn't the same kind of 'all in one' simple interface to work with.
371 implemented the network tray icon (simplistic) but with the feature essentially ifdef'd out for FreeBSD pending an alternative implementation.
Don't think there's any real equivalent. Think pretty much what has to be done is to use the barebones low-level ioctl stuff and whatnot for network interface bits and bobs. Bit aggro but needs to be done if FreeBSD is to be supported properly.
NTS: Perhaps look at networkmgr on FreeBSD - GUI 'equivalent' of NetworkManager's main functionality for connecting to networks & displaying status. Might be useful as a source reference.
