The IESG has received a request from the Operations and Management Area Working Group WG (opsawg) to consider the following document: - 'A YANG Module for Network Address Translation (NAT) and Network Prefix Translation (NPT)' <draft-ietf-opsawg-nat-yang-14.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2018-06-28. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract For the sake of network automation and the need for programming Network Address Translation (NAT) function in particular, a data model for configuring and managing the NAT is essential. This document defines a YANG module for the NAT function. Network Address Translation from IPv4 to IPv4 (NAT44), Network Address and Protocol Translation from IPv6 Clients to IPv4 Servers (NAT64), Customer-side transLATor (CLAT), Stateless IP/ICMP Translation (SIIT), Explicit Address Mappings for Stateless IP/ICMP Translation (SIIT EAM), IPv6 Network Prefix Translation (NPTv6), and Destination NAT are covered in this document. Editorial Note (To be removed by RFC Editor) Please update these statements with the RFC number to be assigned to this document: "This version of this YANG module is part of RFC XXXX;" "RFC XXXX: A YANG Module for Network Address Translation (NAT) and Network Prefix Translation (NPT)" "reference: RFC XXXX" Please update the "revision" date of the YANG module. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-opsawg-nat-yang/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-opsawg-nat-yang/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. The document contains these normative downward references.
