Title : Connecting IPv6 Domains across IPv4 Clouds with BGP

This document specifies a mechanism for IPv6 islands to communicate
with each other over an IPv4 core network without explicit tunnel
setup, requiring only one IPv4 address (and a derived IPv4-compatible
IPv6 address) per IPv6 island or per set of IPv6 islands connected to
the same edge router. The hosts in the IPv6 islands can use native
IPv6 addresses. The method uses MP-BGP in the edge routers to
exchange IPv6 reachability information between the IPv6 islands.

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.
