      <abstract>
	 <t>   This document describes the mechanism of mapping of Ethernet Virtual
   Network to IPv6 Underlay for transmission.  Unlike the existing
   methods, this approach places the Ethernet frames to be transmitted
   directly in the payload of IPv6 packets, i.e., L2 over IPv6, and uses
   stateless mapping to generate IPv6 source and destination addresses
   from the host&#x27;s MAC addresses, Ethernet Virtual Network identifier
   and site prefixes.  The IPv6 packets generated in this way carry
   Ethernet frames and are routed to the destination site across public
   IPv6 network.
