a(n) is the number of unordered solutions (x, y, z) to x*y + y*z + x*z = 3*n^2 in positive integers x and y.
Conjecture: All terms are odd.

EXAMPLE
a(6) = 5 because exactly the 5 integer-sided cuboids (2, 2, 26), (2, 5, 14), (2, 6, 12), (3, 6, 10), (6, 6, 6) have the same surface as a cube with edge length 6: 2*(2*2 + 2*26 + 2*26) = 2*(2*5 + 5*14 + 2*14) = 2*(2*6 + 6*12 + 2*12) = 2*(3*6 + 6*10 + 3*10) = 2*(6*6 + 6*6 + 6*6) = 6*6^2.
