[avahi] Avahi autoipd behaviour when Link goes down

Hi,

I am using avahi autoipd alongwith udhcpc. The scenario is following

DHCP  server is switched off, so after lease time expiry autoipd is
triggered and it assign an IPv4LL address.
Now the ethernet link goes down, this causes the avahi-autoipd daemon to
exit.Is this the default behavior ?

In case when the link comes up and dhcp server is still not there then how
should the autoip be triggered again.
I have added creation of avahi-autoipd in "deconfig" event of udhcpc.script.

Even when the link is down udhcpc keeps running shouldn't autoipd also
continue running ?

Regards,
Rajat
