This paper introduces a new IPv6 deployment protocol called E4Deliver6, which stands for Exploiting Local IPv4- only Access Networks to Deliver IPv6 Service to End-users. The protocol intends to help the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to rapidly start providing IPv6 service to the end_users. E4Deliver6 tunnels the IPv6 traffic into IPv4 traffic to transit the IPv4-only access network infrastructure. The new protocol offers IPv6 service alongside IPv4 service to the end-users, economical solution, and requires simple and automatic configurations at both end-users' hosts and ISP sides at the time of setup. E4Deliver6 connected hosts will be able to communicate with other IPv6-only servers outside their local IPv4-only access network. The performance analysis of E4Deliver6 showed that the performance parameters (e.g. Latency and Throughput) are acceptable in comparison to other stateless protocols (e.g. 6rd) and it is much better than other stateful protocols (e.g. BDMS) performance parameters.
