The Design and Implementation of an IPv6/IPv4 Network Address and Protocol Translator,
Marc E. Fiuczynski, Vincent K. Lam, Brian N. Bershad, To appear in Proceedings of the 1998 USENIX Conference, New Orleans, LA., June 1998.
Describes the design and implementation of a transparent transition service that translates packet headers as they cross between IPv4 and IPv6 networks. While several such transition mechanisms have been proposed, ours is the first actual implementation. As a result, we are able to demonstrate and measure a working system, and report on the complexities involved in building and deploying such a system.
