<p>So I'm curious how the mobile operators deploying ipv6 to the
handsets are dealing with ipv4. The simplest would be to get the
phone a routable ipv4 address, but that would seemingly exacerbate
the reason they went to v6 in the first place. Are carriers
NAT'ing somewhere along the line? If so, where? Like does the
phone encapsulate v4 in 4-in-6? Or does the phone get a net 10
address and it gets NAT'd by the carrier? <br>
</p>
<p>It seems also for mobile carriers there is incentive for as much
transit as possible for native v6 to the servers. Or is the
deployment of v6 mainly within the carrier network itself and it's
NAT'd somewhere?</p>
<p>Basically what does a typical v6/v4 architecture look like for a
mobile carrier these days?</p>

Agreed. When they have to connect to an IPv4 only host, they do
some type of AFTR. These devices have never known a world
outside of this situation. That is a major difference.</div>
