Research direction

Start by reading the OpenVPN 3 C++ client library's request and network-configuration entry points; the issue does not identify a file, test, or existing blocking mechanism. Clarify the intended IPv6-blocking scope and platform behavior first, then define completion through implementation tests showing that IPv6 requests are blocked without breaking supported traffic.
