Here’s the new draft:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-porfiri-dhc-dhcpv4-over-dhcpv6-ra/

This document describes a general mechanism for networks with legacy IPv4 only clients to use DHCPv4-over-DHCPv6 (DHCP 4o6) for discovering information about network Topology. To address this scenario, this document specifies an amendment to RFC7341 that allows a new 4o6 Relay Agent (4o6RA) to perform the 4o6 DHCP en- and decapsulation instead of the client.
