What is IPv4, How to Convert IPv6 into IPv4?

October 28, 2022

Transcription

Hi, welcome to the term of the day: IPv4

IPv4 was the first major version of what became a key network layer communications protocol, often referred to as the TCP/IP model. The concept of the network layer is to relay and route packets of data across network boundaries.

The model provides other protocols that support a variety of communications services such as internetwork routing, status reporting, and network configuration discovery.

CGNAT is designed to convert IPv6 into IPv4 transparently and bridge geographically dispersed IPv4 networks across IPv6 infrastructure.

Other features that CGNAT needs to provide along with the ability to convert IPv6 into IPv4 include supporting tunneling protocols including NAT64/DNS64, DS-Lite, and more.
