Abstract
Nodes on a wide area network ('WAN') such as the Internet may communicate with multiple Internet Protocol Version 6 ('IPv6') nodes on a private network despite the lack of domain name service (“DNS”) server support. The nodes on the private network may obtain router advertisements and utilize this information to generate IPv6 addresses (6-to-4 addresses). A detection process may detect these IPv6 addresses and create web pages including these addresses. When the nodes on the WAN attempt to reach the private nodes using an address of the gateway separating the WAN from the private network, the nodes may instead reach the web pages created by the detection process. These web pages may redirect the nodes to communicate with each of the private nodes using their respective IPv6 addresses.
