Explanation

Dual-stack is the correct answer. In a dual-stack deployment, a router (or any network device) simultaneously runs both IPv4 and IPv6 protocol stacks on the same interfaces, natively supporting both address families at the same time. This is the most straightforward migration strategy. IPv6 tunneling encapsulates IPv6 packets inside IPv4 to cross IPv4-only infrastructure - it does not natively support both on the same interface in a unified way. IPv6 translation (NAT64/NAT46) converts between the two protocols rather than running both simultaneously. NAT alone does not provide dual-stack capability.
