Description

Hello!

Im using "russian vpn" scheme to connect with ISP - WAN interface with DHCP (actually internal ISP network) + L2TP interface to ISP server (as real WAN). If im using FQDN as L2TP server name - it couldn't be resolved during boot up, so i have start this interface manually. Even if i put static DNS entry for this server name to DNS resolver - its still couldn`t be resolver during boot. If i use ip as server address - everything is ok and L2TP interface going up automatically during boot.

Could someone fix this problem, because ISP balancing load between L2tp servers and returns different ip for same FQDN..

we need to restart the L2TP/PPTP interfaces that use WAN as parent on /etc/rc.newwanip event
like GRE/GIF: https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/master/src/etc/rc.newwanip#L125-L126
