The IESG has approved the following document: - 'IP/ICMP Translation Algorithm' <draft-ietf-behave-v6v4-xlate-23.txt> as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Behavior Engineering for Hindrance Avoidance Working Group. The IESG contact persons are David Harrington and Lars Eggert. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-behave-v6v4-xlate/ Technical Summary This document is a product of the 2008-2010 effort to define a replacement for NAT-PT [RFC2766]. It is directly derivative from Erik Nordmark's "Stateless IP/ICMP Translation Algorithm (SIIT)" [RFC2765], which provides stateless translation between IPv4 [RFC0791] and IPv6 [RFC2460], and between ICMPv4 [RFC0792] and ICMPv6 [RFC4443]. Working Group Summary This document represents WG consensus. The primary issues raised dealt with fragment handling. An investigation was done to determine how much of a problem not getting ICMPv6 "packet too big" messages is on the public Internet, and it was found to be a bigger problem than originally anticipated. As such, this changed the WG opinion from rough consensus on one approach to a strong consensus on a different appoach on the final document. Document Quality several vendors are actively implementing the specification. Personnel Responsible AD: David Harrington Dave Thaler (dthaler@microsoft.com) is the document shepherd. The document doesn't require IANA experts. RFC Editor Note Please be sure IPv6 hex addresses are represented in lowercase hex, as per draft-ietf-6man-text-representation. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
