Of course, a DHCPv4 option conflicts with the goal of some people to have
no IPv4 related infrastructure at all.

 Perhaps, define a DHCPv6 option to convey v6-only, for which the client interpretation should be to suppress v4.

Although this will be at the cross road with allowing client’s wishes to use v4 LL for whatever useless/useful traffic, it would be a reasonable deployment policy to enforce.

We have to remember that allowing this would continue to hurt WLAN (not wired LAN) for obvious reasons - radio bandwidth.

During one of ciscolive conferences, i recall having observed lots of useless v4 traffic (e.g. discovery) on WLAN.  Andrew (cced) may remember more details.

Cheers,
Rajiv

Does that return us to the question of how to tell hosts that IPv4
doesnt live here, and to stop trying?

The safest option to do that is a DHCPv4 option that says 'no IPv4 service
here, go away'.

Any network that has IPv4 production traffic already has to protect against
rogue DHCPv4 servers.

Of course, a DHCPv4 option conflicts with the goal of some people to have
no IPv4 related infrastructure at all.
