Description

When updating from VyOS 1.2.5 to 1.3 latest rolling (1.3-rolling-202006210117), interface configuration peth disappeared.
Reproducing steps:

set interfaces pseudo-ethernet peth1 address '172.16.0.1/24'
set interfaces pseudo-ethernet peth1 link 'eth1'
set interfaces pseudo-ethernet peth1 mode 'private'
commit

And just update to the latest rolling

add system images https://downloads.vyos.io/rolling/current/amd64/vyos-rolling-latest.iso

After reboot pethX will be deleted from active configuration but keeps in /config/config.boot

vyos@vyos:~$ cat /tmp/boot-config-trace
