Was it in the context of implicitly configuring a network interface
(inside XORP) to use whatever IP addresses have been assigned
already to that interface:

interfaces {
    interface rl0 {
        default-system-config
    }
}

In general, you should be able to use "default-system-config" for
any network interfaces.

If no, then please resend me the email so I can refresh my memory.
