oh, i see.
i'm not sure if isp always provided it or if the auto created 6rd interface in 
openwrt from dhcp is a new thing.

i know that when i  initially set it up a long time ago i did not get anything 
auto created.
i was under the impression my isp considered 6rd to be experimental.

i will try to delete it and see what happens.
but first id like to take a look at the dhcp reply i get from my isp.
maybe i can run a tcpdump or something to catch it as it renews.

thanks for explaining.
