It is impossible to replace overnight the present Internet Protocol Version 4(IPv4)-based Internet with Internet Protocol Version 6(IPv6). These two protocols are expected to coexist for a number of years during the transition period. A number of transition mechanisms are proposed by Internet Engineering Task Force(IETF) Next Generation Transition Working Group(Ngtrans WG). However, most of them provide only the mechanism to initiate sessions from hosts within the IPv6 network to those within the IPv4 network, but do not support the initiation from IPv4 hosts to IPv6 ones. In this paper, we propose the IPv4-to-IPv6 Dual Stack Transition Mechanism(4to6 DSTM) which can operate even in the case that IPv4 clients in the IPv4 network initiate connections with dual stack servers in the IPv6 network.

The DSTM (Dual Stack Transition Mechanism), one of tunneling mechanism, is considered as the best solution in IPv4/IPv6 transition recently. The DSTM provides a method to assure IPv4/v6 connectivity based on 4over6 (IPv4-over-IPv6) tunneling and temporal allocation of a global IPv4 address to a host requiring such communication. A TEP (Tunnel End Point) operates as a border router between IPv6 domain and IPv4 Internet, which performs encapsulation and decapsulation of 4over6 tunneling packets to assure hi-directional forwarding between both networks. In this paper, we analyze basic standards of the IPv6 protocol. And, we design and implement a DSTM TEP daemon block. The TEP daemon analyzes a fevers tunneling packet that is forwarded by the DSTM node, establishes the TEP's 4over6 interface, and supplies communication between a DSTM and a IPv4-only node. Finally, we construct a DSTM testbed and measure performance of the DSTM TEP. Our observation results show that performance of TEP supports the DSTM service.

IPv6 is a protocol to solve the address space limitation of IPv4 by IETF. Many transition mechanism to communicate between IPv4 and IPv6 in mixed IPv4/IPv6 network are proposed. DSTM tunneling is a mechanism that dual stack in IPv6 network is able to communicate with node in IPv4 network by dynamic allocating the IPv4 address. This mechanism supports the execution of IPv4 dependent application without modification at IPv6 network. In this paper, we explain the security vulnerability at DSTM network for DHCP attack, TEP attack, and source spoofing attack then describe the result of attacks.

In this paper, we propose an efficient algorithm that assigns single temporary IPv4 address and port number to improve efficiency of IPv4 address that is allocated in DSTM service. And, we have analyzed the elementary functions for DSTM and have designed the functional modules. Also, we have implemented the DTI interface for encapsulation and decapsulation of IPv6 packets. The performance analysis and comparison are investigated whether the appropriate interworking service is possible or not. Our observation results show that the performance of IPv4 over IPv6 tunneling is suitable to DSTM service due to the reduction of delay by eliminating checksum calculations in the header of IPv6 tunneling.

현재 IPv6(Internet Protocol Version 6) 도입을 위한 시험망이 세계 각국에서 구축되어 있으며, 이러한 IPv6망을 인터넷 망에 연결하기 위한 IPv6로의 전이에 대한 연구가 활발하게 추진되고 있다. 그러나 현재 대부분의 전이 기술 및 전이 메커니즘들은 고정망을 기반으로연구되고 있기 때문에 이러한 전이 메커니즘들을 수정과정 없이 이동망으로 적용하기에는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 IPv6로의 전이 단계에서 이동 노드의 IP버전에 무관하게 이동 노드에게 이동 서비스를 제공하기 위한 계층적 이중 스택 이동 에이전트(Hierarchical Dual Stack Mobility Agent)[1] 개념을 서술하고 이에 대한 구현 알고리즘을 제시 하고자 한다.
