Title
Stability Analysis And Performance Comparison Of Five 6to4 Relay Implementations
Abstract
Even though the present form of IPv6 has been existing since 1998, the adoption of the new protocol has been very slow until recently. To help the adoption of the IPv6 protocol, several transition technologies were introduced. The 6to4 protocol is one of them, and it can be used when an IPv6 enabled host resides in an IPv4 only environment and needs to communicate with other hosts in such circumstances or with native IPv6 hosts. Five open source 6to4 relay implementations were investigated: Debian Linux sit, Debian Linux - v4tunnel, OpenWrt - sit, FreeBSD - stf, NetBSD - stf. The measurement method is fully described including our measurement scripts and the results of the measurements are disclosed in detail. The measurements have shown that there are major differences between the different types of implementations.
