A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 3715 Title: IPsec-Network Address Translation (NAT) Compatibility Requirements Author(s): B. Aboba, W. Dixon Status: Informational Date: March 2004 Mailbox: bernarda@microsoft.com, ietf-wd@v6security.com Pages: 18 Characters: 43476 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-ipsec-nat-reqts-06.txt URL: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3715.txt This document describes known incompatibilities between Network Address Translation (NAT) and IPsec, and describes the requirements for addressing them. Perhaps the most common use of IPsec is in providing virtual private networking capabilities. One very popular use of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) is to provide telecommuter access to the corporate Intranet. Today, NATs are widely deployed in home gateways, as well as in other locations likely to be used by telecommuters, such as hotels. The result is that IPsec-NAT incompatibilities have become a major barrier in the deployment of IPsec in one of its principal uses.
