IPv6 Rapid Deployment on IPv4 Infrastructures -- Protocol Specification
RFC 5969, “IPv6 Rapid Deployment on IPv4 Infrastructures -- Protocol Specification”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2010 by W. Townsley, O. Troan. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
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. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
