The IESG has received a request from the Open Shortest Path First IGP WG (ospf) to consider the following document: - 'OSPFv3 over IPv4 for IPv6 Transition' <draft-ietf-ospf-transition-to-ospfv3-07.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2016-06-23. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document defines a mechanism to use IPv4 to transport OSPFv3 packets. Using OSPFv3 over IPv4 with the existing OSPFv3 Address Family extension can simplify transition from an OSPFv2 IPv4-only routing domain to an OSPFv3 dual-stack routing domain. This document updates RFC 5838 to support virtual links in the IPv4 unicast address family when using OSPFv3 over IPv4. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ospf-transition-to-ospfv3/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ospf-transition-to-ospfv3/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
