IPv6 Rapid Deployment on IPv4 Infrastructures (6rd) -- Protocol Specification

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Standard
Pages: 18
Abstract: This document specifies an automatic tunneling mechanism tailored to advance deployment of IPv6 to end users via a service provider's IPv4 network infrastructure. Key aspects include automatic IPv6 prefix delegation to sites, stateless operation, simple provisioning, and service, which is equivalent to native IPv6 at the sites that are served by the mechanism.
