There are multiple translation systems and I=E2=80=99ve heard of most, =
if not all of them.
None of them does what you propose =E2=80=94 Smooth seamless =
communication between an IPv4-only host and an IPv6-only host.
So, please, Todd, explicate exactly how you would achieve that stated =
objective=E2=80=A6 What could you do differently on the IPv6-only host =
side that would allow smooth seamless connectivity to/from the IPv4 host =
while still providing a larger address space?

If it=E2=80=99s so simple, why do you continue to refuse to explain the =
process?
