Hi,

The mixed notation can't be used, as it is converted to the hex version automatically and is stored as the /96 case in hex.
ping 2001:db8::192.168.0.1
Pinging 2001:db8::c0a8:1 with 32 bytes of data:

At least im not aware of a device which stores the IPv6 address in mixed notation, they accept it and convert it to the hex notation in /96, afaik.

Karsten

Hi Karsten,

Thanks for the comment, please see reply inline [FP].

I think the solution area should be extended by another possibility to
embed
IPv4 addresses in v6, as the /96 version has to use the hex version of the
ID,
[FP] Perhaps we can use the mixed notation, e.g. 2001:db8::192.168.255.1?

the use of a /80 could be used to store them in a format like
2001:db8::1921:6825:5001 or 2001:db8::0102:5525:0001.
If you like to use an even better readable approach you can also use a /64
for
addresses like 2001:db8::192:168:255:1.
[FP] Yes these approaches are quite human-friendly, thanks.
[FP] We can also consider if there is another solution besides address
mapping and other ideas in the draft.

Best regards,
Peng

Regards
Karsten
