Abstract:

A system and method for provisioning a web service for enabling communication between networks running different Internet Protocol (IP) versions includes a processor-implemented communication module and a processor-implemented provisioning module. The processor-implemented communication module is configured to receive provisioning information from a content provider. The provisioning information includes a fully qualified domain name and an Internet Protocol (IP) address of a first IP version associated with the fully qualified domain name. The processor-implemented provisioning module is configured to provision the web service. The web service causes a request by a client device running a second IP version to access a content provider registered to the IP address to be redirected to a proxy server. The web service further causes the proxy server to retrieve the content from the content provider and to provide the content to the client device.
