Hello,

* My setup
Say I have a router using pppoe to connect to internet.
It gets a different ip address from the ISP every day.
From this router I want to create a gif tunnel to a static-ip host.

* My problem
How can I ensure the src outer address of the gif interface sticks to
the pppoe dynamic-ip ?
***************
* My solution
I was thinking about updating the gif interface when the pppoe link
changes its IP using a userland daemon
which monitors the interface and executes user scripts.

1) Is this a good idea ?
2) Does this daemon already exist ?
2.1) If I write it, would you like me to share it ?
Take a look at ifstated(8).
