IPv4 Mapped
IPv6 Address Type: | IPv4 Mapped |
Prefix: | ::ffff/96 |
Local Routeable: | Yes |
Global Routeable: | Yes |
Global Unique: | Yes |
Example: | ::ffff:83.90.47.30 |
IPv4 Equivalent: | None |
Described in: | rfc4291 |
rfc4038 section 4.2 | |
Explanation
These addresses are used to embed IPv4 addresses in an IPv6 address. One use for this is in a dual stack transition scenario where IPv4 addresses can be mapped into an IPv6 address.
See RFC 4038 for more details
IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses are used in scenarios where IPv6 an IPv6-only application need to communicate with an IPv4 only application using IPv4 packets.
