Will "shorewall disable ${provider}" when the link goes down, and "shorewall 
enable ${provider}" when the link comes up deal with it ?

At work I've a two-provider setup where one of them is a PPP link. At first I 
just did a shorewall restart in the PPP up/down scripts, then I switched to 
just using disable/enable which as far as I can tell works just fine. BTW - 
especially if you have more than one PPP connection (wasn't sure from your 
description if that was the case), you can specify the pppn interface to be 
used in the link config and thus avoid the problem of the links not having 
consistent names.
