Hello there,

  Sorry if this is not the place to ask this.

  I was looking for the concept of "Native IPv6" with no luck.

  I performed a search in google restricting the results inside
ietf.org. However even when a lot of results with the string "IPv6
Native" the concept/description/meaning of what IPv6 native is did not
show up. Among the results I found:

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6751 (Native IPv6 behind IPv4-to-IPv4 NAT
Customer Premises Equipment)

https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-v6ops-rfc7084-bis-00.html (Basic
Requirements for IPv6 Customer Edge Routers)

https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-lopez-v6ops-dc-ipv6-05.html (IPv6
Operational Guidelines for Datacenters)

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7381 ()

  And I found this old thread which refer to this very same topic:

  https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf/KkkOMeinS-l9i_SaViVXHuRw20A


  Is there any document that I might be missing that officially
describes the concept/meaning of "Native IPv6"?


Thanks a lot,


Alejandro,
