On my home network, I have requested a /56 from my ISP. It is easy to get ipv6 on the LAN interface via track interface, but how can I get ipv6 to the other two internal interfaces on the firewall?

A single interface always gets a /64, so you can in fact have up to 256 interfaces with that /56 from your ISP.

You need also ti track WAN interface IP for the other networks. Only make sure to use another identifier for each network. Default is 0, then use 1 and 2 for the other networks.
i am not an expert... just trying to help...

FWIW, it won't (shouldn't) let you assign a prefix that's already in use....

And the question then. How do I configure interface #2?

Default is LAN OPT1 OPT etc, so how do you mean I should do?

The same way you did #1 ... except use a different value for "Assign prefix ID"
