How do we retrieve vendor information vendor specific information
(vivso) received from DHCPv6 server to the hook script. This should
include the vendor class and all the options for this vendor.

See dhcpcd-definitions.conf in the source:

define6 17      embed                   vivso
embed           uint32                  enterprise_number
# Vendor options are shared between DHCP/DHCPv6
# Their code is matched to the enterprise number defined above
# See the end of this file for an example

...

# Vendor-Identifying Vendor Options
# An example:
#vendopt 12345  encap                   frobozzco
#encap 1        string                  maze_location

I recall messing around with vivso a few moths ago and never got the hang of it.
I could really use an complete example, both dhcp client and server(ISC)

Dunno about ISC.
