gif0 does not come up after reboot

this is logged when I manually start /etc/rc.newwanipv6 lan:

The gif0 tunnel is up after doing this.

Ok, interesting. So after running some tests here it appears that never gets called because it's not actually a WAN. I've asked internally because it's not clear to me what should happen there currently. As far as I can see it only restarts DNS and DHCPv6 on the tracking interface.

@stephenw10 Just an hypothetical question: Would this bug be fixed if I paid for one of your support contracts and opened a case?

No. Support contracts are not paid development so it would make no difference here.

There are large number of moving parts currently and development time is at minimum. I didn't see much of a response previosuly. Let me retry....
