IPv6 to IPv4 or 6to4 Tunnel
About 6to46to4 or IPv6 tunneling is being introduced to overcome the communication break created between IPv6 and IPv4 internet users and hosts, IPv4 is commonly used by most networks today. What is 6to4 tunnel or gateway6to4 provides a transition method to exchange information between TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6 networks (the tunnels end points).The 6to4 gateways are already routing traffic today. You can perform a simple $ traceroute command (or tracert in Windows Command Line) on the IP address: 192.88.99.1 6to4, has a default gateway IP address , these are:
The relay anycast addresses are used for routing the traffic to the nearest available gateway.
Default anycast address for the nearest router is to 2002:c058:6301:: What is the difference between IPv4 and IPv6IP 6 or IPv6 will be adpoted inplace of IP 4 or IPv4 as it provides more IP addresses. IPv6 provides more address expansion than the old protocol, which has almost been exhausted. IPv4 addresses: 4,294,967,296 (about 4 billion) IPv6 addresses: 340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,456 . The most significant change from IPv4 to IPv6, will be that IPv4 uses 32 bits, while IPv6 is 128 bits in length.Limitations of IPv4 and IPv6 6to46to4 is a transport layer to facilitate a transparent mechanism between node and host, it cannot support interoperation between IPv4 host and IPv6 hosts in either direction. |
