I haven’t been able to quite get my finger on the sequence of events that cause
netstart to leave the parent interfaces of my vlans in non-promisc, but I was
curious if anyone could provide any guidance as to what’s going on. Rerunning
netstart after boot fixes the problem – I’ve attached a partial diff of
`ifconfig` before and after rerunning netstart to show what happens.
