# This test verifies that we can request and assign IPv6 prefixes from upstream
# (e.g. ISP) routers.
# The setup consists of three VMs. One for the ISP, as your residential router
# and the third as a client machine in the residential network.
#
# There are two VLANs in this test:
# - VLAN 1 is the connection between the ISP and the router
# - VLAN 2 is the connection between the router and the client
