The 120 identifier is the identity of an entity in communication 121 ("who") and the locator expresses the location of the 122 entity ("where"). 123 124 ILA can be configured using the "encap ila" option with 125 "ip -6 route" command.

Like 6to4, it utilizes stateless IPv6 in 175 IPv4 encapsulation in order to transit IPv4-only network 176 infrastructure.
