IPv6 Dies on Reboot - Tearing My Hair Out!?

$

New to EdgeOS, loving it over the past week I've been playing around.  I got IPv6 to work on TWC residential cable modem service using these very simple instructions: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r30097439-Ubiquiti-Edgerouter-IPv6-setup-with-uverse. There are a gazillion community articles about IPv6 and they are all so different, and I'm not super well versed with v6 to be completely honest... so I gravitated to the simplest for a start, which worked right off the bat.

 

However when I reboot all goes to pot.

 

Environment: ERPOE5 and 1.8.0 in WAN 2x2LAN wizard config.  eth0 is WAN, br0 bridge is LAN

 

I SSH in post-reboot and issue these two commands and all things IPv6 start working again on my clients:

 

$ sudo sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf
net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding = 1
net.ipv6.conf.eth0.accept_ra = 2
$ sudo /etc/init.d/wide-dhcpv6-client start
[ ok ] Starting WIDE DHCPv6 client: dhcp6c.

 

Any ideas how I get this configuration to survive a reboot?  Or maybe the site I gleaned the info from is outdated and there's a better way to get this working?  


Additional detail: I notice when I reboot the wide-dhcpv6-client status is "not running"

 

Thanks in advance and sorry if this is a dumb question. Mad2
