Description of problem:
A sit tunnel with SixXS speficed in ifcfg-sixxs does not came up on "service
network restart".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Add in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-sixxs:
DEVICE=sixxs
TYPE=sit
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6TUNNELIPV4=212.xx.xx.73
IPV6TUNNELIPV4LOCAL=xx.xxx.xx.xxx
IPV6ADDR="2001:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx::2/64"
IPV6_MTU="1280"
IPV6_DEFAULTGW="2001:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx::1"

And, then, run "service network restart".

Expected results:


Additional info:

Seems that /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/network-functions file has no full
support for sit tunnels.

If I add in source_config functions, under "GRE | IPIP)":
SIT | sit)
DEVICETYPE="sit"
;;

it fixes my problems.
Seems that else, the OTHERSCRIPT used is ifup-eth instead of ifup-sit.

This problem is also in F9beta, so, please, forward port it.
