Glabel, gpart, geom, or How to label GPT, GPTID partitions with out a /dev/da1p3 drive name.
First, can you read between the lines from a manual pages that INFER a similar naming/numbering scheme exists that you can try out, yet there is not ONE example to guide you. EXAMPLE:
mount -t zfs /dev/da1p2 /mnt/bsd
gpart show

Some of these label names are carried over from the 'file label' name and not the given 'glabel' name in the listings above.
Use a GPT /dev/diskid name to select the "drive" not /dev/da1p2
sudo glabel label -v swap_unirex_244g /dev/diskid/DISK-333457EBD0F2p3

I get confused about which label goes with which partition. So here are commands to use for finding information.
gpart status
gpart show
gpart show -l
gpart list
glabel list
# use the following command to see what labels are used with which devices.
ls -l /dev/gpt /dev/gptid /dev/diskid /dev/label
# URL links to more information about glabel and gpart commands
glabel label -v rootfs_unirex_244g /dev/diskid/DISK-333457EBD0F2p2
So the answer is to Glabel your GPT UUID external USB 3.0 SSD drive, Next use that as the first or 2nd line in the /etc/fstab file to name your SWAP Partition
/dev/label/swap-unirex-224 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/gpt/swap-unirex-224 none swap sw 0 0
swapon -aL to turn the swap on for all swap partitions listed in the file /etc/fstab
swapinfo -m will tell you how much of your swap space is used in megabytes.
swapinfo -m
Device 1M-blocks Used Avail Capacity
/dev/gpt/swap-unirex-224 4443 578 3864 13%
swapinfo -h in Human readable sizes
swapinfo -h
Device Size Used Avail Capacity
/dev/gpt/swap-unirex-224 4.3G 578M 3.8G 13%
Tools to check Free Memory available and How much SWAP memory is used
freecolor -t Is another useful tool that prints on the command line in colors red,grey, and green, a fuel gauge style examples: freecolor -o ; freecolor -om; freecolor -mt
swapctl -l Is another method to display your swap space memory usage
