  1. Issues when translating between IPv4 and IPv6 Suresh Satapati Senthil Sivakumar Ronald van der Pol 56th IETF, San Francisco March 19, 2003

  2. Translation Problems • All problems that come with NAT • NAT-PT (RFC 2766) • DNS-ALG specification

  3. Desired address resolution

  4. Address resolution due to DNS-ALG

  5. Name resolution failure AAAA from v6  DNS-ALG  AAAA  A (no answer)  DNS-ALG (no answer) AAAA  DNS-ALG A or AAAA DNS resolver will ignore the subsequent answer

  6. Name resolution failure(contd.) Case 1: AAAA query  DNS-ALG  AAAA (1)  A (2) AAAA  DNS-ALG  AAAA (reply 1) Case 2: A query  DNS-ALG  AAAA AAAA  DNS-ALG  AAAA reply

  7. Name resolution failure (contd.) DNS-ALG cannot distinguish between cases 1 & 2 ‘A’ query results in a AAAA reply due to DNS-ALG Due to stateless nature…

  8. Scalability issues • Single exit point causes bottleneck. • Concern for 3GPP networks.

  9. NAT or NAT-PT • Dual stack hosts – Use NAT or NAT-PT ?

  10. WG item ?
