Abstract
At present, there are different methods and systems for connecting L3 heterogenous data networks. Current software-defined wide area network (SDWAN) solutions provide a secure way of interconnecting branches or data centers with various deployment models. However, existing solutions do not allow for connecting Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6)-only networks to Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4)-only networks. Presented herein are techniques for providing an efficient and secure way of connecting IPv4-only branches with IPv6-only branches and vice versa. In one instance, techniques presented herein provide for connecting an IPv4-only branch with an IPv6-only branch when the controller is located in the IPv6-only network. In another instance, techniques presented herein provide for connecting an IPv4-only branch with an IPv6-only branch when the controller is located in the IPv4-only network.
