Are sit tunnel interfaces supported in containers?  I want to virtualize a 
tunnel server but the sit interface isn't created.  The standard network 
startup script complains:

Bringing up interface sit1:  ioctl: No such device

The host and container are both SL 6.1.

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-sit1 looks like:

DEVICE=sit1
BOOTPROTO=none
ONBOOT=yes
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6TUNNELIPV4=x.x.x.x
IPV6TUNNELIPV4LOCAL=y.y.y.y
IPV6ADDR=zzzz:zzzz:zzzz:zzzz::z/126

like it does on a real host where sit interfaces work.  What am I missing?
