Abstract:
   This document specifies a framework to integrate a Network Address
   Translation layer into an operator's network to function as a Carrier
   Grade NAT (also known as CGN or Large Scale NAT).  The CGN
   infrastructure will often form a NAT444 environment as the subscriber
   home network will likely also contain a NAT function.  Exhaustion of
   the IPv4 address pool is a major driver compelling some operators to
   implement CGN.  Although operators may wish to deploy IPv6 to
   strategically overcome IPv4 exhaustion, near term needs may not be
   satisfied with an IPv6 deployment alone.  This document provides a
   practical integration model which allows the CGN platform to be
   integrated into the network meeting the connectivity needs of the
   subscriber while being mindful of not disrupting existing services
   and meeting the technical challenges that CGN brings.  The model
   included in this document utilizes BGP/MPLS IP VPNs which allow for
   virtual routing separation helping ease the CGNs impact on the
   network.  This document does not intend to defend the merits of CGN.
