The latter.

Try:
fxp0 -seed -phase 2 -net 1-1 -zone "My Zone"
fxp1 -seed -phase 2 -net 2-2 -zone "My Zone"
fxp2 -seed -phase 2 -net 3-3 -zone "My Zone"
ep0 -seed -phase 2 -net 4-4 -zone "My Zone"
You can use any zone name you like, also different zone names on different
interfaces.

Probably due to the fact that fxp1, fxp2 and ep0 never got up.

Does "our router" refer to the FreeBSD machine, or do you have another
router? If it is the FreeBSD machine, then try the above; as evident from
the ifconfig -au output, the other interfaces were not configured for
AppleTalk at all.
Hope this helps,
