== Protocol translation == GNUnet can tunnel IP traffic over the peer-to-peer network. If necessary, GNUnet can perform IPv4-IPv6 [[IPv6 transition mechanisms|protocol translation]] in the process. GNUnet provides a [[Application-level gateway|DNS Application-level gateway]] to proxy DNS requests and map addresses to the desired address family as necessary. This way, GNUnet offers a possible technology to facilitate [[IPv6 transition mechanisms|IPv6 transition]]. Furthermore, in combination with GNS, GNUnet's protocol translation system can be used to access hidden services β IP-based services that run locally at some peer in the network and which can only be accessed by resolving a GNS name.
