prop-165: Provision of IPv4 Address Space to IPv6-only Networks for Transitional Purpose
| Proposal text | prop-165-v001 |
|---|---|
| Objective |
This proposal aims to enable organizations eligible for IPv6 Provider Aggregatable (PA) address space to request and receive a limited IPv4 allocation, specifically a /24 block. This is intended to support the deployment of IPv6-only networks that still require minimal IPv4 resources for transitional purposes, such as DNS resolution. |
