Abstract
This document specifies a mechanism of dual stack hosts using the technique called 'Bump-in-the-API' which allows for the hosts to communicate with other IPv6 hosts using existing IPv4 applications. The goal of this mechanism is the same as the Bump-in-the-stack mechanism [BIS], but this mechanism provides the translation method between the IPv4 APIs and IPv6 APIs. So that the goal is achieved simply without IP header translation.
