I've had this issue before.  My solution was to turn off ipv6 autoconf
in the kernel since I do not want IPs that I do not explicitly assign.

To me this is a bad idea, you're working around the issue instead of
fixing the real issue which is that you're getting IPs on your server
that you didn't configure for.
