<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hello,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I am having a problem with updating my interface's
IP address after a script tries to re-establish a tunnel on uplink
failure.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I have a script change my variables in a connection
file and it does: ipsec auto --down, then ipsec --replace and then ipsec --up on
the specific connection. The connection description gets updated, but not
the interface's address.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2></FONT></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2>Is there any way I can update the interface's
