Abstract
In this paper, we give an overview of Smart Sensor Networks and illustrate the communication systems between smart sensor networks and IPv4 networks. In order to support the communication between smart sensor networks and current Internet, we introduce some existing IPv4/IPv6 translation mechanisms and point out their shortcomings such as scalability. This paper then proposes an enhancement on the IVI mechanism by adding the IPv6 auto-configuration feature. Simulation shows that the proposed approach works well with thousands of concurrent sessions.
