2006 was the year when Land Rover drastically changed the diesel L322 driveline (for 2007 model year) from:
3.0 TD6 BMW diesel engine (130kW/390Nm)/GM 5L40-E 5-speed transmission/New Venture NV225 transfer box
to
3.6 TDV8 Ford diesel engine (200kW/640Nm)/ZF 6HP26 6-speed transmission/Magna Steyr DD295 transfer box
You therefore have the later transfer box (which, incidentally, Land Rover are still using today) which is fitted with an electronically-controlled slipping wet multi-plate clutch to provide a centre differential lock and torque biasing between front and rear propshafts.

It’s therefore very important that the fluid you use has the correct friction modifiers to suit the clutch’s characteristics, so you should only use the recommended Shell TF0753 fluid (capacity = 1.5 litres).

P.S. The earlier New Venture Gear transfer box also used a special fluid, Castrol BOT 26 FMB 1 75W-90, to suit the friction characteristics of its Torsen Type-B centre differential (capacity = 1.0 litre)
