Tony's answer is quite correct for ILNPv6, which is the best documented case. The ILNPv6 Locator is simply a 64-bit topologically relevant "IPv6 Routing Prefix". Noel's answer is similarly correct for ILNPv4. The ILNPv4 Locator is simply a 32-bit topologically relevant "IPv4 Routing Prefix". Later, Noel Chiappa asked: % However, on the IPv6 side, I don't know how ILNPv6 nodes % would carry the ILNPv4 node's locator - perhaps in an ... option? Using an option is clearly one possible design choice. The simplest design option might be just to map a 32-bit IPv4 prefix into the ILNPv6 Locator field in a structured way. RFC-4291, Section 2.5.5, defines at least 2 different ways that such a mapping might be performed.
