IPv6/IPv4 Protocol Translation in SPIN
نویسنده
چکیده
To ease the transition of the Internet from IPv4 to IPv6, header translation has been proposed to provide a truly incremental upgrade path. Translating between IPv4 and IPv6 involves two distinct procedures, address translation and protocol translation. The protocol translation procedure indeed depends on the type of address used, but its core concepts and associated issues are generally independent of any address translation mechanism. This paper focuses on the protocol translation aspect and details it using a translator implementation done in the SPIN extensible operating system [1]. Although this specific implementation is discussed, the protocol translation procedure described is fundamental to all IPv6/IPv4 translators.

Comparison Between IPv4 to IPv6 Transition Techniques
The IPv4 addresses exhaustion demands a protocol transition from IPv4 to IPv6. The original transition technique, the dual stack, is not widely deployed yet and it demanded the creation of new transition techniques to extend the transition period. This work makes an experimental comparison of techniques that use dual stack with a limited IPv4 address. This limited address might be a RFC 1918 ad...
متن کاملRFC 6144 Framework for IPv 4 / IPv 6 Translation April
This note describes a framework for IPv4/IPv6 translation. This is in the context of replacing Network Address Translation Protocol Translation (NAT-PT), which was deprecated by RFC 4966, and to enable networks to have IPv4 and IPv6 coexist in a somewhat rational manner while transitioning to an IPv6 network.

متن کاملEnhanced encapsulated Security payload a New Mechanism to Secure Internet Protocol Version 6 over Internet Protocol Version 4
A considerable amount of time will be needed before each system in the Internet can convert from Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) to Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6). Three strategies have been proposed by the Internet Engineer Task Force (IETF) to help the transition from IPv4 to IPv6 which are dual stack, header translation and tunneling. Tunneling is used when two computers using IPv6 wa...
متن کاملInternet Engineering Task Force (ietf) 464xlat: Combination of Stateful and Stateless Translation
This document describes an architecture (464XLAT) for providing limited IPv4 connectivity across an IPv6-only network by combining existing and well-known stateful protocol translation (as described in RFC 6146) in the core and stateless protocol translation (as described in RFC 6145) at the edge. 464XLAT is a simple and scalable technique to quickly deploy limited IPv4 access service to IPv6-o...
