The ''option ipv6 auto'' line will cause a virtual interface named ''wan_6'' to be created, and an instance of the DHCPv6 client to be run on it. This will request an IPv6 Internet address, and a single Prefix to be Delegated. You can't get the DHCPv6 client started this way to accept more options.

= Routed IPv4 addresses in the local network =

AAISP offer a block of up to 8 routed IPv4 addresses to customers. These can be configured on the lan interface instead of RFC1918 addresses, but you will have to change the firewall config. By default 2 firewall zones are created - wan and lan, and masquerading is done on the wan zone. The masquerading should be turned off for routed lan addresses - "Network", "Firewall", edit "wan" zone, untick masquerading.
