Most IP related knobs will have an ipv4_ and ipv6_ version. To make the

router => ipv4_router
router_flags => ipv4_router_flags
defaultrouter => ipv4_defaultrouter

Please try it and let me know what you think.
Personally, I'd prefer the new names be along the lines of
ifconfig_<interface>_ipv4, ifconfig_<interface>_ipv6,
defaultrouter_ipv4, defaultrouter_ipv6, dhclient_program_ipv4,
dhclient_program_ipv6, etc.
Personally I think that grouping things by ipv4/ipv6 makes more sense, and
has better longevity.
And this would be a good time to change defaultrouter to default_router!
Or we could make it shorter and call it gateway.
