Chapter 6 Broadband
Dual Stack Lite
Use Dual Stack Lite when local network computers use IPv4 and the ISP has an IPv6 network.
When the SBG3500-N has an IPv6 WAN address and you set IPv6/IPv4 Mode to IPv6 Only, you
can enable Dual Stack Lite to use IPv4 computers and services.
The SBG3500-N tunnels IPv4 packets inside IPv6 encapsulation packets to the ISP's Address Family
Transition Router (AFTR in the graphic) to connect to the IPv4 Internet. The local network can also
use IPv6 services. The VDSL Router uses it's configured IPv6 WAN IP to route IPv6 traffic to the
IPv6 Internet.
