Boole is our core router, has both FTTC lines connected to it. DHCP and DNS server. Runs the spacefed node for the space and is an ldap server.

Issues

On boot unbound can fail to start due to ipv6 dad not finishing in time for it to bind to it's ipv6 address, see this:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2012/11/msg00038.html I added sleep 10 to the unbound init scripts. --- We have have installed the latest version of the rp-pppoe ppp plugin so we can use a 1508 byte mtu to avoid having to do mss clamping. ---

Sometimes we lose the ipv6 default route, doing poff a-and-a ; pon a-and-a makes it work again, but we don't know the underlying cause.
