Abstract

For the rapid exhaustion of IPv4 address pool against the slow development of IPv6, IPv4/6 coexistence/transition proved to be a long period. In the IPv4/6 transition process, there are many NAT- like technologies existing in the internet. However the NAT boxes such as IPv4 NAT, IPv4/6 NAT is insufficient in their reliability and scalability, which might cause a single point of failure in IPv4/6 transition architecture. This document defines a reliable and scalable NAT(RS-NAT) mechanism to solve the problem.
