If a CE has a /32 prefix, say p:p::/32, and some Mapping rule that derives an IPv4 prefix or address from it, all 4rd Tunnel packets sent to it have, according to the 4rd-U draft, an IPv6 destination starting with p:p:0:0:3000::/80. Within the CE, all packets whose destination start with this prefix can be routed, within the CE, to the 4rd function. Native IPv6 packets are routed in the CE with prefixes that are either longer than the CE 4rd prefix and non-overlapping, or shorter. In both cases adding a route for the 4rd /80 doesn't impact how they are routed. Does this clarify?
