Re: multihoming requirement and NAT64



Marcelo,

I don't have concrete idea, but it may not impossible with current or future
technologies.
If it is not classified as a MUST, and if it is really required, we can add to
requirement document, since it is Requirement.


On the other hand, I have a concern.
So, let me confirm some fundamental points.

Does the requirement document have clear criteria to add a item to the list?
Will the requirement document list all the features of IPv6?

I think NAT64 environment is not conformable as native ipv6 environment.
So, there may be some restrictions in somewhere.

I think we should list only the items which have realistic use case.
# This is generic proposal, and not directly related to multihoming issue.

Hi,

during the v6ops meeting in Philadelphia, Michael brought up the issue about multihoming support for NAT64 boxes. As we know, current NAT boxes interact poorly with multihioming configurations. the question i guess
whether we should impose some requirements of multihoming support for
new NAT64 boxes.

I don't see how we can, since there is no single, agreed technique
for IPv6 multihoming, and I don't see why we would impose any constraint
to do better than regular v4 NAT on the v4 side.

It might be worth asking solutions to describe how they
interact with various multihoming techniques.
