Title
Configuring Hosts to Auto-detect (IPv6, IPv6-in-IPv4, or IPv4) Network Connectivity.
Abstract
This document specifies a new IPv6 deployment protocol called CHANC, which stands for Configuring Hosts to Auto-detect (IPv6, IPv6-in-IPv4, or IPv4) Network Connectivity. The main part is an application level tunneling protocol that allows Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to rapidly start deploying IPv6 service to their subscribers whom connected to the Internet via IPv4-only access networks. It carries IPv6 packets over HTTP protocol to be transmitted across IPv4-only network infrastructure. The key aspects of this protocol are: offers IPv6 connectivity via IPv4-only access networks, stateless operation, economical solution, assures most firewall traversal, and requires simple installation and automatic configuration at customers. hosts. All data packets and routing information of the IPv6 protocol will be carried over the IPv4 network infrastructure. A simple application and a pseudo network driver must be installed at the end-user's hosts to make them able to work with this protocol. Such hosts will be able to auto-detect the ISP available connectivity in the following precedence: native IPv6, IPv6-in-IPv4, or no IPv6 connectivity. Because the protocol does not require changing or upgrading customer edges, a minimal cost in the deployment to IPv6 service should be expected. The simulation analysis showed that the performance of CHANC is pretty near to those of native IPv6, 6rd, and IPv4 protocols. Also, the performance of CHANC is much better than that of D6across4 protocol.
