I think of that as the opposite - an IPv6 socket pretending to be IPv4 in order to route to an IPv4 endpoint.

- ignoramous 1y agoDepends on the vantage point: For a firewall that's ip4 hiding in ip6. For a router, that's ip6 accomodating ip4.
- Dagger2 1y ago::ffff:0:0/96 is for representing v4 addresses in v6 APIs. You shouldn't even see it on the wire at all, but if you do it's just a regular v6 bogon range and not anything to do with v4, so it doesn't get or need any special handling in firewalls or routers.
