IPv6 follows master, deployed: vyos002 has a tunnel and a gate that holds it shut
Applied step 0 to production, backup first, IPv4 untouched throughout. vyos001
held the VIP and the internet the whole way; verified before and after every
commit.

Order, which is the safety property: he-secrets onto vyos002 -> vrrp-wan-install
on BOTH (so the gate exists before the tunnel) -> tunnel + task-scheduler on
vyos002 -> route6 + bond0.9 ::2 + router-advert on vyos002 -> link-mtu 1472 on
vyos001.

The blackhole is confirmed behaviour, not theory. The moment the tunnel
committed, vyos002 brought tun0 UP with source 87.192.101.48 -- an address it
does not own -- and the reconciler closed it on the next tick:

  vrrp-wan: not MASTER: bringing tun0 down
  vrrp-wan: not MASTER: stopping radvd (deprecates the v6 gateway)

Same for radvd: VyOS started it on commit, the reconciler stopped it. Both have
stayed shut. That is the override's old "it would simply stay down" assumption
failing in production exactly as it failed in the sim.

wan-drill --dry now reports the same tunnel source on both routers, where it
previously read "<no tunnel -- IPv6 cannot survive a failover>".

Two things found by deploying rather than reading:

- commit-confirm hangs non-interactively here, exactly as PPPOE-HA.md records.
  The ssh timed out leaving an orphaned config-mgmt commit_confirm holding the
  config lock, with nothing committed. Killed it and used plain commit + save --
  safe on the backup, which holds no VIPs, no WAN, and whose LoT path is
  untouched. Worth knowing the failure is clean: no partial config landed.
- he-tunnel-follow's status path died with "WAN_MTU: bad array subscript" on the
  backup. An empty array subscript is a hard bash error, not an empty expansion,
  so the :- default never applies -- and a backup has no default route, so it
  broke on precisely the box whose state you most need to read. Fixed and
  redeployed to both.

This is now live DRIFT against the Pulumi model. Until
migration/pulumi-override-he-tunnel-both.json is merged into overrides.json, a
pulumi up can strip the tunnel, route6, bond0.9 addresses, router-advert and
task-scheduler entry. Recorded there and in the backlog's drift section.

# Keep the Hurricane Electric 6in4 tunnel pointed at whichever WAN is live.
#
# The tunnel is anchored to a source IPv4. When failover moves the default route
# from the 10 gig to PPPoE, 6in4 packets keep leaving with the old source, HE
# drops them, and IPv6 goes dark while IPv4 keeps working -- a partial outage
# that presents as "some sites are broken", which is far worse to diagnose than
# a clean one.
#
# Installed on BOTH routers and gated on VRRP mastership: the backup exits
# immediately, and vrrp-wan-reconcile brings tun0 up and calls this script the
# moment it takes the VIP. The HE endpoint itself needs no update when the WAN
# moves between routers -- 87.192.101.48 is the 10 gig lease bound to the cloned
# MAC, so it follows the VIP to the other box unchanged (proven by the 2026-09-06
# drill). HE only has to be told about the WITHIN-box fall back to PPPoE.
#
# Changes are made at KERNEL level (`ip tunnel change`), not in VyOS config, on
# purpose:
# - no commit per WAN flip, so a flapping line cannot churn the config;
# - no drift against the Pulumi model, so `vyos-verify` stays meaningful;
# - a reboot restores config.boot, which pins the 10 gig -- the correct
# default -- so the wrong state cannot survive a restart.
