The IESG has received a request from the IPv6 Operations WG (v6ops) to consider the following document: - 'Stateless Source Address Mapping for ICMPv6 Packets' <draft-ietf-v6ops-ivi-icmp-address-06.txt> as Best Current Practice 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 2012-09-25. 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 A stateless IPv4/IPv6 translator may receive ICMPv6 packets containing non IPv4-translatable addresses as the source. These packets should be passed across the translator as ICMP packets directed to the IPv4 destination. This document presents recommendations for source address translation in ICMPv6 headers to handle such cases. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-v6ops-ivi-icmp-address/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-v6ops-ivi-icmp-address/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
