IPv4-only solutions is not my intended meaning. I agree that the mobile hosts/routers should only support IPv6 applications (and not IPv4 apps) but that support can be enabled over either IPv6 or IPv4 access networks through tunneling. > My > assessment of the winds within the community is that people are not > interested in new protocols for IPv4. No, this is not a new protocol for IPv4. It is IPv6 Neighbor Discovery over tunnels over either IPv6 or IPv4 access networks.
