IPv6 on Everything: The New Internet

Overview There is no getting around the fact that IPv6 will have to interoperate with - or tunnel through - IPv4. The good news is that IPv6 creates no order dependencies: Net architects can upgrade their hosts first and then the routers, or their routers first and then the hosts. They could even upgrade some hosts, some routers, and leave the rest alone. As for which of the three main interoperability mechanisms - tunnels, translators, or dual stacks - will predominate, is quite open.
