“ Like address mapping (and virtual memory) tunneling introduces another address space. However, there are two differences. First, the virtual address space doesn’t have to look anything like the physical. For example, it is possible to have the virtual address space be IPv6 and the physical address space be IPv4. Second, the full address mapping is stored in the packet so that there is no need to create per-flow state within the network to manage the mappings. „
