+ If you use ppp/pppoe/pppoa) to connect to your internet provider
+ and you use traffic shaping you need to restart shorewall traffic
+ shaping. The reason for this is, that if the ppp connection gets
+ restartet (and it usally does this at least daily), all tc
+ filters/qdiscs related to that interface are deleted.
+
+ The easiest way to achieve this, is just to restart shorewall
