Thanks for that Benno. I did see another rtlabel reference in ifconfig(8)
but I don't think that will work as expected either
https://man.openbsd.org/ifconfig#rtlabel

During the migration, there will be OpenBSD routers in the network that
will have some routes coming in from OSPF and RIPv2 so both daemons will be
running on these hosts so network segments can continue to talk to each
other. In the usual commercial offerings, you simply imply what you want
to redistribute and this can be another routing protocol, static, connected
etc. as the routing stack is aware of other protocols being used.
