        normally you just setup your lan interface to track

        Then below you would see section on what wan interface to track and the prefix id you want to request, etc.

        I run HE tunnel, so can not so you exact configuration.  I have issues with maintaining the same prefix on the lan side, etc. So found it easier to just run a Hurricane electric tunnel.  Free - can get a /48 if you want even.

          If you're getting a WAN IPv6 address and a LAN prefix via DHCP…

          The IPv6 setting for your WAN interface should be set to DHCP.

          On the LAN interface, you should set your IPv6 setting to Track Interface, then in the IPv6 section select WAN as the interface to be tracked. If you're getting a /64 prefix from your provider then the field below should be 0.
