An IPv6 address using the 6to4 mode consists of an IPv4 address, the format is as the following:
2002:[a public IPv4 address in hexadecimal]::/48
For example,
A public IPv4 address is 202.156.30.41. The converted hexadecimal IP string is ca.9c.1E.29. The 
IPv6 address prefix becomes 2002:ca9c:1e29::/48.

Prefix Delegation
Prefix delegation enables an IPv6 router to use the IPv6 prefix (network address) received from the 
ISP (or a connected uplink router) for its LAN. The Device uses the received IPv6 prefix (for 
example, 2001:db2::/48) to generate its LAN IP address. Through sending Router Advertisements 
(RAs) regularly by multicast, the Device passes the IPv6 prefix information to LAN hosts. The hosts 
use the prefix to generate their IPv6 addresses.
5.1.3  Before You Begin
You need to know your Internet access settings such as encapsulation and WAN IP address. Get this 
information from your ISP.
5.2  The Broadband Screen
The Device must have a WAN interface to allow users to access the Internet. Use the Broadband 
screen to view or modify a WAN interface.
Click Network Setting > Broadband. The following screen opens.
