A bit more information about the situation would be helpful. What exactly are you trying to do?

6 to 4 translation is possible, but until we understand the situation I’m not sure we can be that helpful. Are these phones? If so are they dual stack? Is the underlying network dual stack? There’s a lot of work to do to get this right in a Kamailio config. You’ll need to run rtpengine to proxy the media if the endpoints are not dual stack. Who keeps the mapping of the v6 to v4 and v4 to v6 translations? How is that mapping determined? I’d recommend ds-lite if you are in a position to alter the network and the phones/systems allow for it.
