Subject: Re: IPv6 tunnel doesn't start on boot


 
Dumb question: do you have networking service enabled? 
Sorry for top-posting, I'm using cellphone to post to the list.

Here's my /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-sit1 config:

DEVICE=sit1
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6TUNNELIPV4=64.62.134.130
IPV6ADDR=2001:470:eda::2/64
NM_CONTROLLED=no
DNS1=2001:470:20::2
DNS2=74.82.42.42

additionally i have in my /etc/sysconfig/network

IPV6_CONTROL_RADVD=yes
IPV6_DEFAULTDEV=sit1
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6FORWARDING=yes

it works for me.

also try 

systemctl enable network.service

just to make sure that the network service is set to run on boot in systemd
