Exploiting Local IPv4-only Access Networks to Deliver IPv6 Service to End-users This publication appears in: International Journal of Computers and Communications Authors: A. Hamarsheh and M. Goossens Volume: 5 Issue: 3 Pages: 169-177 Publication Date: Jul. 2011
Abstract: This paper introduces a new IPv6 deployment
protocol called E4Deliver6, which stands for Exploiting Local IPv4-
only Access Networks to Deliver IPv6 Service to End-users. The
protocol intends to help the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to
rapidly start providing IPv6 service to the end_users. E4Deliver6
tunnels the IPv6 traffic into IPv4 traffic to transit the IPv4-only
access network infrastructure. The new protocol offers IPv6 service
alongside IPv4 service to the end-users, economical solution, and
requires simple and automatic configurations at both end-users' hosts
and ISP sides at the time of setup. E4Deliver6 connected hosts will
be able to communicate with other IPv6-only servers outside their
local IPv4-only access network. The performance analysis of
E4Deliver6 showed that the performance parameters (e.g. Latency
and Throughput) are acceptable in comparison to other stateless
protocols (e.g. 6rd) and it is much better than other stateful protocols
(e.g. BDMS) performance parameters. External Link.
