The Bottom Line: IPv4 to IPv6 Transition
Addressed in RFC1933
- Two mechanisms have been proposed:
- A Dual IPv4 and IPv6 TCP/IP stack on the same host or router (called a IPv6/IPv4 node)
- One IPv4 and one IPv6 address PER node
- Considered the simplest solution
- IPv6 over an IPv4 tunnel
- Two Types:
- A configured tunnel
- A automatic tunnel ( Source and destinating are IPv6/v4)
