      Hi,

      I am using the latest pfsense (2.2.2-Release).
      I have 2 pfsense firewalls both has 2 internet links (one ADSL and one LL) I would like
      to create gre tunnels. Everything works till I restart any of the firewalls. The tunnel does not come up.
      Firewall rules on wan interfaces allows the gre packets and disable/enable of the gre interface solves the problem.
      Gateway monitoring also shows that the remote end is down.

      Is this a bug which I ran into?

      Thanks for help,

      klajosh

        I made a workaround. I use the shellcmd package and issue this command by the package:

        ifconfig gre0 up
        ifconfig gre1 up

        (as shellcmd)

        check the attachments
