directories.
Title : IPv4/IPv6 Interoperation Using the HTTP CONNECT Method
Author(s) : I. van Beijnum
Filename : draft-van-beijnum-v6ops-connect-method-00.txt
Pages : 4
Date : 2007-7-5
As of the deprecation of NAT-PT as a mechanism to allow IPv6-only
hosts to connect to IPv4-only hosts, there is no longer a viable
way to provide interoperation between IPv4-only and IPv6-only hosts
connected to the internet.
This document outlines a way to use the HTTP CONNECT method (better
known as HTTPS proxying) to accomplish this interoperation for a
large (but not the full) set of IP applications. The intent is to
provide a base level usability for IPv6-only hosts to remove the
need to provide IPv4 connectivity in all cases.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-van-beijnum-v6ops-connect-method-00.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
