I found this out the 'hard' way;
Edit '/etc/network/interfaces', '( ifdown eth0 ; sleep 1 ; ifup eth0 ) 
&' used to work, even over SSH. But with Stretch this no longer works.
With Stretch, I even had to write a script to bring up the WAN (VLAN + 
PPPoE);

This doesn't bother me, but it does show that high level out of the box 
doesn't necessarily behave the way you might expect. In which case low 
level plus scripts works just fine.
