Deprecated v · IPv6 hosts to communicate with IPv4 servers. The NAT64 server is the endpoint for at least one IPv4 address and an IPv6 network segment of 32-bits (for instance 64:ff9b::/96
, see RFC 6052, RFC 6146). The IPv6 client embeds the IPv4 address it wishes to communicate with using these bits, and sends its packets to the resulting address. The NAT64 server then creates a NAT-mapping between the IPv6 and the IPv4 address, allowing them to communicate.[1]Principle of operation
Very simplistic NAT64 setup can be thought as a network device (a router) with at least two interfaces. One of this interfaces is connected to IPv4 network, and another is connected to IPv6 network. The network configured in a way that packets from IPv6 network to the IPv4 network get routed through this router. The router itself performs all the necessary translations needed to transfer packets from IPv6 network into the IPv4 network, and vice versa.
The translation isn't symmetric, as IPv6 address space is a lot larger than IPv4 address space (compare: 2128 for IPv6 and 232 for IPv4), so no one-to-one address mapping is possible. Therefore, in order to be able to perform the translation, NAT64 is required to keep the IPv6 to IPv4 address mapping (that is, it's stateful). Such an address mapping is either statically configured by the system administrator, or (more frequently) is created automatically when the first packet from IPv6 network reaches NAT64 to be translated. After this address binding is created, packets can flow in both directions.
In general, NAT64 is designed to be used when the communications are initiated by IPv6 hosts. Some mechanisms (including static address mapping) exist to allow the reverse.
