 This configuration method is one of the most commonly used. It provides native IPv6 connectivity for your network. It allows the ability to assign different IPv6 address ranges for bridge 0 (br0) to 3 (br3) if you're given a prefix with length smaller than 64 (for example 60 or 56) from your provider. The option to assign IPv6 address ranges for bridge 1 (br1) to 3 (br3) is only visible if the bridges already exist. Check your configuration in the //Basic///[[basic-network|Network]] menu to learn more. This configuration method is one of the most commonly used.

-**Configuration example for German Telekom ISP**+ \\
  
-German Telekom, Europe's biggest telecom company, supports a dual-stack setup (IPv4 & IPv6). By default, it provides a prefix length of 56 for regular consumers. A prefix length of 64 (the default configuration for FreshTomato) will also work, but eliminates the possibility of assigning different IPv6 address ranges for bridge 1 (br1) to 3 (br3).+Example Configuration: German Telekom

If bridges 1 (br1) through 3 (br3) exist, and if the prefix length is smaller than 64, you can enable IPv6 subnets for these bridges, as seen below.
