      2.1.5; WAN DHCP-PD obtaining a /60 from Comcast

      Issue / Observation:  radvd.conf is generating totally different configuration for the LAN and OPT interfaces.

      The LAN is getting a configuration for DHCPv6 Server.  OPT is what I would call a typical SLACC configuration.

      DHCPv6 is happily running and handing out addresses on the LAN.  DHCPv6 configurable options are only for static addresses interfaces, so it runs "in the blind".

      The router advertisement timers are also different.  Again, no way for the user to adjust.

      Is this expected behavior???
