At the moment NM is Linux-only, mainly due to usage of Linux-kernel-specific WiFi and Ethernet calls, hardware detection using udev, and IP/routing using netlink. While NM could be ported, somebody would have to explore the FreeBSD alternatives to stuff like udev and mechanisms to get the wifi card's current BSSID, signal strength, rates, ethernet carrier on/off, and programmatically setting IP addresses and routes.
