A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Next Generation Transition Working Group of the IETF.
Title : Connection of IPv6 Domains via IPv4 Clouds without Explicit Tunnels Author(s) : B. Carpenter, K. Moore Filename : draft-ietf-ngtrans-6to4-00.txt Pages : 10 Date : 25-Jan-99
This memo specifies an optional mechanism for assigning a unique IPv6 address prefix to any site that currently has at least one globally unique IPv4 address, and describes scenarios for using such a prefix during the co-existence phase of IPv4 to IPv6 transition.
The motivation for this method is to allow isolated IPv6 domains, attached to an IPv4 network which has no native IPv6 support, to communicate with other such IPv6 domains with minimal manual configuration. Effectively it treats the IPv4 network as a virtual link layer. It also automatically provides 80 bits of globally unique IPv6 address space to any site with at least one globally unique IPv4 address. If combined with a Network Address Translator (NAT), it allows the NAT to provide a globally-unique and globally-routable IPv6 address to each of its client hosts.

Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ngtrans-6to4-00.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE" command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the Internet-Draft.
