Benefits:
EXTEND IPV4
CONNECTIVITY - Solve IPv4 address exhaustion and extend the life of an IPv4 network infrastructure to ensure critical applications and services are always available and reliable.
MANAGE IPV6
MIGRATION - Enable a smooth transition to IPv6 by supporting translation and tunneling between IPv4 and IPv6 networks. Various options, such as DS-Lite, 6rd, Lw4o6, NAT64/DNS64 and MAP, can run concurrently to allow network operators to phase in transition mechanisms as needed.
SCALE FOR IOT
and BYOD - The Internet of Things and BYOD adoption have enabled the rapid proliferation of internet-connected devices, depleting the available IPv4 address space. Plan to meet the demand for connectivity expansion and scale your infrastructure for growth to ensure service continuity.
