Just something to keep an eye on.
I did have a brief power failure the other evening, which restarted the cable modem but not the gateway router. I noticed that dhcpleased re-started the IPv4 lease, but I had to manually issue `$ dhcpcd -n vlan3` to re-establish the prefix delegation. I already have ifstated running on the gateway, so I may just add that to the script.
