AppleTV 4k is or has two ipv4 addresses showing in router

Is is possible that appletv 4k is attempting to reserve an ipv6 address and ipv4 address, even with ipv6 shut down at the eero router? There are two ip’s listed under the same hostname xxx.xxx.xxx.x24 (active) and xxx.xxx.xxx.x31 which is unreachable.

One of them would not be IPv6, as that would look very different (longer, and with colons instead of dots). Both numbers are IPv4. The Apple TV is happy with one IPv4 address, and does not try to ‘reserve’ another address.

Something else is happening. Have you tried restarting the router?
