everyone--
Would the authors of the NAT66 draft consider adding a requirement for
NAT66 gateways to comprise the combination of the translator function
with the IPv6-relevant functions of Realm-specific IP servers for
symmetric NAT, c.f. RFCs 3102 and 3103? (I don't see an immediate
need to worry about the functions defined in RFC 3104 as long as
address amplification can remain off the table as a goal for any IPv6/
NAT standard.)
I think requiring RSIP servers in the NAT66 gateway would address Dave
Thaler's argument about Source Address Finding (SAF) as presented in
draft-thaler-ipv6-saf, and I'm inviting the authors to respond with
comments. I'd be a lot less wiggy about NAT66 if it looked like RSIP
(or its moral equivalent) might finally see the light of day.
