Abstract

It is clear that there is not enough time to upgrade existing Internet hosts to dual stack before the IPv4 address pool depletes. This implies that the IPv6 transition and co-existence must support interaction between IPv4 nodes and IPv6 nodes. In this article we describe NAT64 and DNS64, a tool suite that provides a way forward in the IPv4-to-IPv6 transition by allowing communication among unmodified IPv6 and IPv4 nodes.
