Dual stack wifi uplink

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

I have been wondering if / how a dual stack wireless uplink could be configured.

For a dual stack wired uplink, /etc/config/network would have something like

config interface wan
        option device 'eth0'
        option proto 'dhcp'

config interface wan6
        option device '@wan'
        option proto 'dhcpv6'

However for a wireless station / uplink, normally the wan interface in /etc/config/network wouldn't have any option device, and instead the wifi-iface in /etc/config/wireless would have option network 'wan' to reference the /etc/config/network definition.

In that context, how would one go about adding the wan6 interface and making it use the same wifi uplink as the wan interface ?

It's the same. The @wan alias will follow to a wireless STA connection as well. Remove the default Ethernet device from the (IPv4) wan section, and attach the wifi client with option network 'wan'.

Thank you, that made it work for me!
