The document describes an IPv6-to-IPv4 transport relay translator
(TRT).  It enables IPv6-only hosts to exchange {TCP,UDP} traffic with
IPv4-only hosts.  A TRT system, which locates in the middle,
translates {TCP,UDP}/IPv6 to {TCP,UDP}/IPv4, or vice versa.

This document is a product of the Next Generation Transition Working
Group of the IETF.
