specifies a DHCPv4 option to indicate that a host supports an
IPv6-only mode and is willing to forgot obtaining an IPv4 address if
the network provides IPv6 connectivity. The general idea is that
a network administrator can enable this option to signal to compatible dual-stack devices that the
IPv6 connectivity is available and they can shut down their IPv4 stack. The new option
`v6-only-preferred` content is a 32 bit unsigned integer and specifies for how long the device
should disable its stack for. The value is expressed in seconds.

option value on pool, subnet, shared network, global levels or even specify it in host reservations.
