I'm building a router for my home using Fedora server as the base.
I have a ISP that provides me with a IPv4 and Ipv6 over PPPoE.
The IPv6 is a /48.
I have the IPv4 all working well.
But the IPv6 configuration I cannot figure out.
I have two interface named internal and external.

How do you recommend that I do that and after the backup has completed how do I

I just came across the bootctl command. Atleast on Fedora 23 and 24
it errors out because /boot is not FAT EFI. I thought that if you are EFI
then the EFI was always in /boot/efi.

swapoff is called while all our production processes are still running.
