RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fix for ifup-sit/ifdown-sit scripts to process rule6-* files

Description of problem:
When activating IP6 over IP4 tunnel, the route6-* files are processed but rule6-* are not.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
9.03.27-1.el6

How reproducible:
allways when starting/stopping IP6 tunnel via ifup/ifdown scripts

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-he6 as TYPE=sit and file etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/rule6-he6 with proper rules.
2. ifup he6
3. 
  
Actual results:
"ip -6 ru ls" does NOT show rules defined in rule6-he6 file

Expected results:
"ip -6 ru ls" should show rules rules defined in rule6-he6 file

Additional info:
Adding ip6 rules works for regular interfaces (eg. eth0). Patch fixing this issue is attached.

Thanks for the patch, I see no reason why not to include it.
