Title : Translating IPv4 to IPv6 based on source IPv4 address
Author(s) : C. Perkins
Filename : draft-perkins-sourceipnat-00.txt
Pages : 14

A method is proposed to enable communications between an IPv4-only
node in today's Internet and an IPv6-only node, initiated by the
IPv4-only node. The communication depends on allocation of a flow
record and address triggered by a DNS query received for the target
v6-only node. DNS query conventions can be agreed upon to provide a
natural model for resolving IPv4 queries for IPv6-only nodes. The
NAT mechanism proposed demultiplexes multiple sessions through the
same dynamically allocated IP address, using flow records matching
the source address of incoming packets. This is in contrast to the
use of ports in NAT-PT boxes, which inhibits the support of incoming
traffic towards a node behind the NAT-PT.
