I have a laptop which communicates with the firewall over a bridged wireless 
interface.

To minimize security risks, I configured ip.tun0 to push the data through the 
physical interface (rtls0), which in turn is configured with IPSec + IKE.

In the file /etc/defaultrouter I specified the ip.tun0 interface's address, as 
I want all and any communication to go through the encrypted tunnel by default.

What is happening, however, is that when the system comes up, ip.tun0 is 
configured, but the default route is not!

However, if I do

route add net default <firewall's ip.tun0 IP address>

manually, the route comes up and everything works.

This leads me to believe that the default route in /etc/defaultrouter is 
attempted to be configured before the ip.tun0 interface is brought up. Is this 
true?

What could I do, in a Sun-compliant way, to get the default route to 
automatically come up?
