While major carriers are proceeding toward a pure IPv6 network for next generation services, current practicalities require the continued support of IPv4 handsets and other devices. As a result, the Oracle Communications Subscriber-Aware Load Balancer provides support for single non-channelized physical interfaces that support both IPv4 and IPv6 ingress and egress on the same network interface.

Support for the dual stack interface requires no new additional configuration elements, and is provided by the proper configuration of the following elements in the ACLI Configuration Guide:

Configuration Element	Section containing configuration element in the ACLI Configuration Guide documentation
