That one is obvious.

Remember that when TC is used on both IPv4 and IPv6 on the same network 
interface(s), then only one of the configurations can define the 
interface(s) in TC. The above settings assume that it will be done in 
Shorewall.

In IPv6, IP_FORWARDING=On disables autoconfiguration on all interfaces, 
which would be a poor default. IP_FORWARDING=On has always been the 
default in Shorewall.

Only one of the two can have KEEP_RT_TABLES=No. Same reason as CLEAR_TC 
above.

Hmmm -- that one is a bit strange.

Same as the other TC-related settings.

If you are configuring a router with Shorewall6, then you need to change 
that setting.
