Manageable Transition To IPv6 Using ISATAP: An Executive Overview
White Papers Currently, IT administrators must use technologies such as Network Address Translation (NAT) - which adds complexity and can cause application incompatibilities - or combine public and private IP addresses on the same network to support the...

Addressing The Digital Divide With IPv6-Enabled Broadband Power Line Communications
White Papers IPv6 provides a package of highly scaleable enhancements to the Internet compared to the capabilities of the existing IPv4 protocol, which is today only sustained by Network Address Translation (NAT).

What Is IPv6?
White Papers The differences between IPv6 and IPv4 are in five major areas: addressing and routing, security, network address translation, administrative workload, and support for mobile devices. IP, the Internet Protocol, is one of the pillars, which supports...

Network Processors Applied To IPv4/IPv6 Transition
White Papers But full deployment will need to use network address/port/protocol translation (NAPT-PT), in which new hosts are given only IPv6 addresses and must talk through a gateway in order to speak to old networks.

Rocky Road Ahead For IPv6
News Besides, Droms points out, "new technologies like Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) and Network Address Translation (NAT) have been added to extend IPv4's potential addresses, and thus, it's useful lifetime.

Concerns Grow Over IPv6 Migration
News Daley said IPv6 was complex to understand in relation to IPv4 and that, in these early days, it remains unpredictable as to how network address translation equipment might handle IPv6. European businesses are being held back from migrating to IP...

Transition To IPv6 In 2G And 3G Mobile Networks
White Papers Neither network address leasing nor translation are ideal for the new generation of applications such as IP telephony, mobile IP, and push applications that assume unique addressing and client reachability.

IPv6 And Infranets
White Papers That has led to a reliance on NAT (Network Address Translation), which often adds complexity and constrains applications. Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) plays a key role in this transformation. Increasing address size from 32 bits to 128 bits...

Largest IPv6 Network Launched In China
News Some have said that techniques such as network address translation (NAT) -- which lets up to 257 nodes in a corporation sit behind a single IP address -- mean it is possible to work around IPv4's limitations.

Net May Run Out Of IP Space - TCP/IP Pioneer
News One such workaround, for example, is network address translation, which allows computers within a corporation to share a small number of addresses. If no more addresses are created, eventually, no more sites will be able to be added to the Internet.

Enterprises Urged To Make IPv6 Migration
News APNIC's Wilson said the much larger address space IPv6 has over IPv4 will allow businesses to expand their networks much more easily without the use of current workarounds, such as NAT (network address translation) technology.

IPv6 And IPv4 - Big Trouble Coming, And Soon
Blog Many of the same issues occur if you decide just to manage the existing resources more carefully, by using more address translation and other tricks, what's left can last longer but at the expense of manageability and interconnection.
