Kitamura Status: Informational Date: April 2001 Mailbox: kitamura@da.jp.nec.com Pages: 12 Characters: 25193 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-ngtrans-socks-gateway-06.txt URL: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3099.txt This document describes a SOCKS-based IPv6/IPv4 gateway mechanism that enables smooth heterogeneous communications between the IPv6 nodes and IPv4 nodes. It is based on the SOCKS protocol. By applying the SOCKS mechanism to the heterogeneous communications and relaying two "terminated" IPv4 and IPv6 connections at the "application layer" (the SOCKS server), the SOCKS-based IPv6/IPv4 gateway mechanism is accomplished. Since it is accomplished without introducing new protocols, it provides the same communication environment that is provided by the SOCKS mechanism. The same appearance is provided to the heterogeneous communications. No conveniences or functionalities of current communications are sacrificed.
