  • Abstract
    Numerous IPv6 transition mechanisms have been developed for supporting interoperability between IPv4 and IPv6. Although performance aspects of these mechanisms are requirements for practical deployment, they have yet to be empirically evaluated. In this paper we present the impact of IPv6 transition mechanisms on user application. Our experimental results show that though performance overheads were minimal, with small, fragmented and translation packets some performance degradation did occur
