Description

Set default TTL 64 for tunnels

1.2-x has default ttl 255

vyos@r2-lts# set interfaces tunnel tun0 parameters ip ttl 
Possible completions:
   <0-255>      Time to live (default 255)

1.4 has default ttl inherit

vyos@r1-roll# set interfaces tunnel tun0 parameters ip ttl 
Possible completions:
   0            Inherit - copy value from original IP header
   1-255        Time to Live

Inherit works not properly. So bgp and ospf protocols can't communicate with inheriting.
Also after an update from 1.2 to 1.3/1.4 the cause a bgp session not established.
