(now I'm teasing.. .Bill where's your docs on this fantastic new teknowlogie?)
I found it here:
But the readme is a bit confusing:
http://www.ivi2.org/code/00-ivi0.5-README
Trying to figure out how they map a /70 v6 prefix to a /30 v4 prefix assuming the mapping is to be 1-1
Right, 1 to 1 does not solve any IPv4 exhaustion problems.
ah... but the trick is to only need enough IPv4 in the pool to dynamically talk to the Internet. Native v6 to Native v6 never has to drop back to the Internet, It uses native v6 paths. So the larger the v6 uptake, the fewer Internet addreses you'll need to keep around in your pool.
Going back to the title of the thread, IVI does not help you sunset IPv4 since the same amount of IPv4 is required.
See above.
