The IESG has received a request from the Behavior Engineering for Hindrance Avoidance WG (behave) to consider the following document: - 'Dual Stack Hosts Using "Bump-in-the-Host" (BIH)' <draft-ietf-behave-v4v6-bih-06.txt> as a 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 2011-09-14. 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 Bump-In-the-Host (BIH) is a host-based IPv4 to IPv6 protocol translation mechanism that allows a class of IPv4-only applications that work through NATs to communicate with IPv6-only peers. The host on which applications are running may be connected to IPv6-only or dual-stack access networks. BIH hides IPv6 and makes the IPv4-only applications think they are talking with IPv4 peers by local synthesis of IPv4 addresses. This draft obsoletes RFC 2767 and RFC 3338. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-behave-v4v6-bih/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-behave-v4v6-bih/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
