[ale] ODD iptables issue?

[Jim Kinney]

Do QOS choices are 1 or 2 so you picked 0. Probably comment is wrong. But it looks (on a glance) that your startup for working vpn requires qos=1. Maybe the restart sets it to 1 than later a timeout happens with no vpn traffic and that section times out and closes. Don't see anything obvious to me on shutting down the forwarding for vpn traffic.
