Dual-stack is the correct IPv6 migration technique because the DWDM devices provide Layer 2 transport between routers that already support both IPv4 and IPv6. Layer 2 transport is generally transparent to IPv6 because it forwards Ethernet frames rather than participating in Layer 3 routing. The routers at the ends of the DWDM circuit can peer directly over the Layer 2 service and run IPv6 in parallel with IPv4, while mail servers can also retain IPv4 reachability during the migration. Cisco dual-stack migration guidance uses simultaneous IPv4 and IPv6 operation to support phased application and host transition with minimal tunneling overhead. 6to4, ISATAP, and 6rd are tunneling or transition mechanisms used when IPv6 islands must cross IPv4-only routed infrastructure. In this case, the limiting devices are in the transport layer and do not need to route IPv6. Deploying dual-stack on the capable routers and servers is simpler, more transparent, and avoids unnecessary encapsulation.
