The question is how can I or what is the best way to check for the
Shorewall “Stopped” condition after an unattended reboot?

AFIK shorewall wants to know (detect) the addresse of the external
interface in order to start.



Shorewall can be configured to start successfully before any interfaces are brought up but you must avoid using Shorewall features that require Shorewall to probe the current IP configuration. Two common examples are:

a) Do not use 'detect' in the BROADCAST column of /etc/shorewall/interfaces.
b) Do not use a device name in the SUBNET column of /etc/shorewall/masq.

AFAIK this is the typical set up for a dynamically assigned IP.
