the same way like you remove all interfaces...

ifconfig interface-name unplumb

and look at /etc for the hostname.interface-name files or for "addif" entries in the hostname files for the physical interface.

try below command to unplumb and plumb all interfaces again.

#ifconfig ce0 unplumb;
#ifconfig ce5 unplumb;
##ifconfig ce0 plumb;
#ifconfig ce5 plumb;
#ifconfig ce0 `cat /etc/hostname.ce0`
#ifconfig ce5 `cat /etc/hostname.ce5`
#route add default <your gatway">
