The Ubiquiti Edgerouter Lite doesn't have great IPv6 configuration natively in its web interface so was painful to work out the correct set up. Here's how I did it for others benefit :-
When you run the setup wizard choose PPPoE (entering your login & password), tick "IPv6 Firewall" and "DHCPv6 PD". The default /48 prefix length is correct.
After you hit apply, the router will set itself up, connect to Giganet via PPPoE and you should see an IPv4 address allocated on the dashboard tab. This is the easy bit
To complete the configuration in the GUI, you have to go to the "Config Tree" tab. Expand (using the triangle shaped buttons) interfaces, ethernet, eth0, pppoe, dpcpv6-pd. You should now see DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation Options on the right. Make sure rapid-commit is "disable".
Next, scroll down a little and hit the "+" sign next to "prefix-only" so it changes to "prefix-only -". Then, down a little more and expand "ipv6", then click the "+" next to enable to change it to "enable -". After you do this, hit the preview button at the bottom then apply. If ever you want to disable ipv6, just toggle this "enable" option by clicking the "-".
After it's done its stuff, go to the dashboard tab and hopefully you should see your IPv6 addresses on the pppoe0 interface and also /64 delegated ranges on each of your internal interfaces (eth1, eth2). If you don't see these, contact Giganet support and ask them to release your IPv6 lease.
