Fix up default route selection by
a) Forcing user to explicitly chose 'dhcp' as a mechanism for
specifying a default route, rather than guessing based on one or more
interfaces being configured by dhcp.
b) If the user specified default route does not work, re-present the
existing default route rather than losing it.
c) Move default route selection to after nameserver activation so the
user can specify a hostname as the default route.
Change /etc/netstart so that /etc/mygate wins if a default route was
already specified (i.e. by dhcp).

multicast_host/multicast_router settings; this is useful if one
flushes the routing table and re-initializes.
We really need a netconfig tool of sorts.
licence in a way that makes ipf not free according to the rules we
established over 5 years ago, at www.openbsd.org/goals.html (and those
same basic rules govern the other *BSD projects too). Specifically,
Darren says that modified versions are not permitted. But software
which OpenBSD uses and redistributes must be free to all (be they
people or companies), for any purpose they wish to use it, including
modification, use, peeing on, or even integration into baby mulching
machines or atomic bombs to be dropped on Australia. Furthermore, we
know of a number of companies using ipf with modification like us, who
are now in the same situation, and we hope that some of them will work
with us to fill this gap that now exists in OpenBSD (temporarily, we
hope).
to do this,
1. in sysctl.conf, add these lines:
net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=0
net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv=1
2. in hostname.foo, add
rtsol
specifying two or more interfaces with "rtsol" may result in strange
behavior - ipv6 spec does not permit multi-interface node to be autoconfig'ed.
