On the IPv6 network, realize the tunnel establishing method of the IPv4 network interconnection
Technical field
The tunnel establishing method of realizing the IPv4 network interconnection on the IPv6 network belongs to Internet technical field, relates in particular to the tunneling technique of the IPv4 and the IPv6 network interconnection.
Background technology
Because IPv4 address space wretched insufficiency, will be developed rapidly based on the Next Generation Internet of IPv6.Yet because the IPv4 the Internet has had considerable scale and application program widely, so the IPv4 network is inevitable in long-term existence from now on, forms and process that IPv6 network of future generation progressively merges.Along with the IPv6 backbone network is set up, need to introduce a kind of new technology the IPv6 backbone network of IPv4 terminal use by rapidly and efficiently coupled together to improve the service quality of network.In addition, progressively discarded along with the IPv4 network will produce the disconnected transition stage of IPv4 network, and the IPv6 network need be realized communication between the different IP v4 network based on this as the bridge of a plurality of IPv4 networks of connection in this stage.
The address structure of IPv6 and IPv4 network is completely different, and the interconnection technique of IPv6 and IPv4 network becomes an important difficult problem of internet development.Though occurred at present the interconnection technique of many IPv6 and IPv4 network, as RFC2893, RFC2529, RFC3056, RFC3053 and some IETF draft, yet that these technology concentrate on IPv6 over IPv4 is technical.As shown in Figure 1, the left and right sides is isolated IPv6 network, connects with existing IPv4 network between the two.Above-mentioned technology has defined under this network topology structure, how realizes mutual between the IPv4 network by being based upon tunnel on the IPv6.
Along with IPv6 networks development and IPv4 network progressively discarded from now on, IPv6 will become the core of the network interconnection, thereby situation about no longer being communicated with by the IPv4 agreement between the IPv4 network might occur.In addition, provide the situation of high speed high-quality transmitted in packets for the IPv6 network, adopting the transport communication based on the IPv6 backbone network between the IPv4 network also is a kind of possible high-quality transmission mode.Therefore, how be necessary to consider to realize mutual between the IPv4 network, as shown in Figure 2 by the tunnel of setting up IPv4 over IPv6.
Though RFC2473 relates to IPv4 over IPv6 technology, it has only defined the packet encapsulation form, does not relate to the mutual processing of route, can't be applicable to the interconnected of large-scale complex topological structure.When network size becomes under the big and interconnected complicated situation, how source end IPv4 network carries out route and forwards the packet on the end dual-stacker router of source and how the encapsulation node determines the purpose IPv6 address etc. of tunnel transmission, becomes the core technology problem of IPv4 over IPv6.Method proposed by the invention is applicable to IPv4over IPv6 Network Transmission, and rerouted communications mutual, can be applicable to the interconnected of large-scale complex topological structure.

Embodiment
Fig. 3 is the concrete grammar that the 4to6 tunnel of realizing the IPv4 network interconnection on the IPv6 network proposed by the invention is set up.After dual-stacker router receives grouping, at first judge the affiliated type of grouping, if the IPv6 routing packets then and then according to prefix PRFX matched rule judges whether it is pseudo-IPv6 route, if then pseudo-IPv6 route is reduced to the IPv4 route and in the IPv4 network, propagates; On the contrary, if the IPv4 route, convert pseudo-IPv6 route to after then this IPv4 route being added particular address prefix PRFX, and to the IPv6 Internet communication.By the propagation of above-mentioned pseudo-IPv6 route, make the routing iinformation that has the IPv4 network on the whole network, for the forwarding of following grouping is laid a good foundation.
If the grouping that dual-stacker router receives is not a routing packets, but the grouping that need transmit, then above-mentioned router is searched two stack routing tables, and carry out respective handling according to the next hop address of route searching result and the type of grouping itself: for next jumping is that IPv6 address and this grouping are the IPv4 groupings, then grouping is encapsulated, IPv6 source of packets address after the encapsulation is PRFX:IPv4 source address::, destination address is PRFX:IPv4 destination address::; To next jumping be IPv4 address and this grouping be have the IPv6 of PRFX prefix grouping (the source of packets address is PRFX:IPv4 source address::, destination address is PRFX:IPv4 destination address: :), then decapsulation is carried out in grouping, the source address of IPv4 grouping is above-mentioned IP v4 source address after the decapsulation, and destination address is IPv4 destination address.By the process of encapsulation or decapsulation, make grouping on corresponding network, normally to transmit.
According to ietf standard, the IPv6 address of 0x2 beginning is the unicast address that assemble in the whole world, 0x2002: :/16 IPv6 address prefixs for the use of 6to4 tunnel if therefore Internet organizes IETF can accept the present technique invention, then can be defined as 0x2003: with PRFX wherein :/16.Before IETF accepted the present invention, existing IPv4 enterprise network then can this prefix be set to the IPv6 address prefix that ISP distributes to this enterprise if need by the IPv6 network interconnection.Encapsulation mechanism in the present technique invention can adopt the tunnel packet encapsulation mechanism of defined IPv4 over IPv6 among the RFC2473.
The practice example of this technology as shown in Figure 4.Source end IPv4 node A need send grouping to destination IP v4 Node B.Destination IP v4 network is mutual by route, makes dual-stacker router R2 receive the IPv4 route of 166.1.1.1/16.According to the flow process of Fig. 3, R2 converts pseudo-IPv6 route PRFX:166.1.1.1: to after this IPv4 route is added particular prefix PRFX:, and should puppet IPv6 route to the IPv6 Internet communication.Source end dual-stacker router R1 receives this puppet IPv6 route PRFX:166.1.1.1:: after, by this puppet of particular prefix PRFX coupling identification IPv6 route, it is reduced into IPv4 route 166.1.1.1/16 and in the end IPv4 network of source, propagates.
By above-mentioned route reciprocal process, the route of Node B that made whole network operation, so source end IPv4 node A can send grouping to destination IP v4 Node B.Be grouped in the IPv4 network of source, source address is that 192.1.1.1, destination address are 166.1.1.1, as packet arrival source end dual-stacker router R1, according to the flow process of Fig. 3, R1 finds that the next hop address of this IPv4 grouping is the IPv6 address, therefore it is packaged into the IPv6 grouping.At this moment, the source address of this grouping is PRFX:192.1.1.1 :~, destination address is PRFX:166.1.1.1 :~.After grouping after encapsulation arrived destination dual-stacker router R2, R2 found that according to the routing table lookup result next jumping of this IPv6 grouping is the IPv4 address, and the decapsulation of therefore should dividing into groups finally is forwarded to purpose IPv4 network.
Because therefore 4to6 tunneling technique proposed by the invention can have general adaptability, complex topology structure as shown in Figure 5 with the IPv4 routing iinformation alternately in whole network.The IPv4 network can comprise the IPv4 network address of number of different types, as 166.1.1.1/16 and 123.1.1.1/8, the IPv6 network can carry out that multiple access point is connected, the IPv4 network also can have a plurality of access points with the IPv6 network with a plurality of isolated IPv4 networks.
This shows that the present invention has reached intended purposes.
