Douglas,
Broadly speaking your looking at the transition mechanisms from v4 to
v6, which include dual stack, translations, tunnels or cutting over
straight to v6 (native) across your network.
When it comes to NAT, v6 was designed to do without NAT, to achieve
end to end seamless communication, due to the various problems NAT
introduced into networks, thus the Billions of addresses available to
those using v6, seeing as NAT was initialy meant as a Band Aid to v4
running out of addresses.
Broadly speaking :)
Cheers

IP v6 and 4, were some of the topics discussed at the recent Lug
event, at jet Cafe in Namuwongo, i was among the atendees because i
have a keen interest in open source, the community and am involved
in mapping Uganda at www.mappingday.com.
I want some explanation on how a network or organisation using IP v4
can integrate IPv6, and how IP v6 handles the NAT security scheme in
v4: how the hidden addresses will be handled by v6.....
