Yes, there are several mapping methods. NAT64 is one mechanism, DS-lite is a second. You must have hardware that can simultaneously run dual stacks (IPV4 and IPV6) and supports the proper software--LINUX! See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_transition_mechanism See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAT64 IMO, NAT is a tool and it can solve some difficult problems. Can it be misused and abused, yes. So can most other tools. As for IPV4 space, there is plenty of AMPR 44.0.0.0/8 space and private RFC1918 space (e.g.: 10.0.0.0/8) which will be available into the foreseeable future. BGP isn't a requirement. Are software (registration server, databases, etc.) changes needed to make this concept work, yes. But, changes will be needed anyway. Here are some useful videos: NAT64: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GkynY809eg DS-lite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NijvopYCtIg If you really, really NEED IPV6 right now, and have IPV4 connected systems, these methods do work. And, I'm speaking as an ISP. One final thing to remember is that while the USA may be seeing fairly high IPV6 adoption rates, much of the rest on the world is not. IPV4 will be here for a long time to come. See: https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html#tab=per-country-ipv6-ado... 73, David KB4FXC On Wed, 14 Sep 2016, Philip Dorr wrote:

As for running NAT, why? One of the points of moving to IPv6 is to get away from using NAT.
A NAT rule takes 10 seconds to set up for any network administrator, and it just works. Moreover, for those who definitely do not like NAT, there are plenty of 44.x.y.z AMPR IPv4 adresses available to the HAM community.
A NAT rule on IPv4 takes a few seconds, but one on IPv6 takes hardware/software that supports it. What was mentioned initially about NAT was NAT64 which requires a NAT gateway to be setup, and is not usually a simple matter of port forwarding. _______________________________________________ App_rpt-users mailing list App_rpt-users@ohnosec.org http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users To unsubscribe from this list please visit http://ohnosec.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users and scroll down to the bottom of the page.
