NAT64/DNS64/464XLAT makes the most sense to us because it's progress
toward native IPv6. As more and more users start using it for IPv6
connectivity, and as more server-side resources move to IPv6, the
IPv4 threads just fall away and the user is left with no other
migrations to make.<br>
<br>
Other transition mechanisms would still require a 2nd migration
after IPv4 is well and truly dead (not literally, of course, just
mostly).<br>
<br>
In Africa, because we still have a bit of IPv4, we should use the
time between now and then to ensure that when we can no longer issue
IPv4 to our customers, the CPE underworld has properly implemented
464XLAT.<br>
