Hi Washam,

We can allow to use multiple mapping rules in a 4rd domain. In this case, there 
are several mapping rules and one mapping rule consists of the following 
parameters.

Domain IPv6 prefix
Domain 4rd prefix
CE IPv6 prefix length
Domain IPv6 suffix (optional)

When delegating an IPv6 prefix from the network, the corresponding mapping rule 
whose domain ipv6 prefix has the longest match with the delegated ipv6 prefix, 
can be selected.

Also, when forwarding an IPv4 packet to another CE, the corresponding mapping 
rule whose domain 4rd prefix has the longest match with the the destination 
ipv4 address, can be selected.

It is stated in section 5.1.1 and section 7 a little bit in the draft.

Thanks,
Tetsuya Murakami
