This document captures the problem statement for the Softwires

Working Group, which is developing standards for the discovery,

control, and encapsulation methods for connecting IPv4 networks

across IPv6-only networks as well as IPv6 networks across IPv4-only

networks.  The standards will encourage multiple, inter-operable

vendor implementations by identifying, and extending where necessary,

existing standard protocols to resolve a selected set of "IPv4/IPv6"

and "IPv6/IPv4" transition problems.  This document describes the

specific problems ("Hubs and Spokes" and "Mesh") that will be solved

by the standards developed by the Softwires Working Group.  Some

requirements (and non-requirements) are also identified to better

describe the specific problem scope.  This memo provides information for 

the Internet community.

This document is a product of the Softwires

Working Group of the IETF.
