Abstract
IPv6 (IP version 6), which was standardized by the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) to cope with existing IPv4 problems, needs several approaches for interoperation with IPv4. The internetworking of IPv6 with IPv4 is an important key to the deployment of the next generation Internet. As the solutions to the transition mechanism, both tunneling and translator methods have been proposed. In this paper, we analyze functional elements for implementation design of a transition mechanism based on the NAT-PT (NAT-Protocol Translation), and propose an extension algorithm that uses ports for effective use of global IPv4 addresses. The algorithm presented in this paper is a method of combining NAT-PT with Port Translation mechanism. The algorithm does not assign an IPv4 address to the host that needs IPv4 address, but allocates a single temporary IPv4 address and a port number in order to identify host.
