(Add the missing route)
(First details of the WAN configuration)
 
= Configuring the WAN interface to access AAISP =
 
In order to access AAISP, the router needs to talk PPPoE over the WAN interface. IPCP will configure IPv4, and then IP6CP will start to configure IPv6. The heavy lifting of IPv6 configuration will be done by DHCPv6.
 
The appropriate entries in ''/etc/config/network'' will look like:
config device
option name 'eth0.2'
option macaddr 'ab:cd:ef:gh:ij:kl'
config interface 'wan'
option device 'eth0.2'
option proto 'pppoe'
option username 'XXXX@a.1'
option password 'ItIsASecret'
option ipv6 'auto'
list ip6class 'wan6'
config interface 'wan6'
option device 'eth0.2'
option proto 'dhcpv6'
option sourcefilter '0'
option reqaddress 'try'
option reqprefix 'auto'

=== Solutions ===
 
We need a way for the WAN to tell the LAN about the wider routing block, whilst letting the LAN only use for itself the first /64 block.
 
I'm investigating the options:
