I can't say for the WAN interface, but, it doesn't give any controls for =
delegating
stuff to the LAN interface(s) and doesn't provide visible indication of =
DHCP
support on IPv6 in any configuration options.

Additionally, I've found their IPv6 implementation to be rather broken =
in a number
of "interesting" ways where the combination of IPv6 and IPv4 =
configuration choices
results in several possible useful configurations that simply don't do =
IPv6 even though
they should.
