   I did just that a couple of years ago to test prefix delegation. I connected a   
   second router behind my primary router and IIRC it got a /61 out of the /56   
   assigned to me. Of that /61, one /64 was routed to the local LAN of the second   
   router.  I presume the process allows for cascading routers until the /56 is   
   exhausted, but I did not explore that. I was satisfied that I demonstrated   
   prefix delegation worked.   
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
