4+4 Open Source Code Release:

http://ipv44.comet.columbia.edu/

for the Linux implementation of 4+4 and tools. The source and i386
binaries are part of the release.

What is 4+4?

4+4 is an evolutionary approach to address space extension and IPng
deployment. 4+4 starts as a NAT-extended architecture that provides a way
back to unique, global, network layer host addresses - through its
deployment end-to-end transparency is restored.

There is no need to change routers. The transition process provides
incentives. The final state of the network is a homogeneous and
transparent Internet that uses 64-bit addresses and a packet format
similar to tunneling.

A paper on: "4+4: An Architecture for Evolving the Internet Address Space
Back Toward Transparency" that describes the design, implementation, and
experimental evaluation of 4+4 can be found at:

Thanks!
