>The IESG has approvedTransmission of IPv6 over IPv4 Domains without
>Explicit Tunnels <draft-ietf-ipngwg-6over4-02.txt> as a Proposed
>Standard. This document is the product of the IPNG Working Group. The
>IESG contact persons are Jeffrey Burgan and Thomas Narten.

>Technical Summary
>
>This document specifies how to run IPv6 over an IPv4 multicast
>domain. The entire IPv4 cloud is treated as a virtual local link.
>The motivation for this method is to allow isolated IPv6 hosts,
>located on a physical link which has no directly connected IPv6
>router, to become fully functional IPv6 hosts by using an IPv4
>domain that supports IPv4 multicast as their virtual local
>link. It uses IPv4 multicast as a "virtual Ethernet."
>
>This document specifies the frame format for transmission of IPv6
>packets and the method of forming IPv6 link-local addresses over IPv4
>domains. It also specifies the content of the Source/Target Link-
>layer Address option used in the Router Solicitation, Router
>Advertisement, Neighbor Solicitation, and Neighbor Advertisement and
>Redirect messages, when those messages are transmitted on an IPv4
>multicast network.
>
>Working Group Summary
>
>There was consensus in the WG for this approach.
>
>Protocol Quality
>
>This document has been reviewed for the IESG by Thomas Narten.
>
>Note to RFC Editor:
>
>RFC 1972 is mentioned in the text, but is not listed in the
>references. Please add a reference.
