'''IPv6 transition mechanisms''' are important technologies to facilitate the transitioning of the [[Internet]] from its initial [[IPv4]] infrastructure to the next generation addressing system of [[IPv6]]. Specifically, they are methods that allow IPv6-connected hosts to access IPv4 Internet resources and hosts. Some IPv6 transition mechanisms were first defined in RFC 1933, which has been superseded by newer developments in RFC 4213.

The [[Internet Engineering Task Force]] (IETF) conducts working groups and discussions through the IETF [[Internet DraftsDraft]]s and [[Requests for Comments]] processes to development these methods.
