Re: [v6ops] Operational Consensus on deployment

["Heatley, Nick" <[e-mail]>]

Hi all, EE similar, but not identical. We are hot on 464xlat (RFC6877), it is perfect for networks that already extensively use NAT44, and gets customers off IPv4 (both public and private, as neither is sufficient).
Regards,
Nick

Hi all,

I confirm this is correct. Even we went further and we do not use DNS64. Our architecture is CLAT+NAT64+DNS. So with dns and without dns ipv4 traffic always goes via CLAT. It’s perfect solution ☺ UK EE will do the same.

See more at: http://www.data.proidea.org.pl/plnog/12edycja/day2/track4/01_ipv6_implementation.pdf

Even triple translation is not bad too: CLAT+NAT64stateless+NAT44statefull.

Ross suggests that he sees conceptual movement - First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, and then you win. We may, Ross suggests, be approaching stage 4. It may be useful for us as a working group to lay out the game plan for that movement - not just to document IPv6 operational practice, but to help the IETF determine whether the dual stack consensus has changed or is changing, and help operators figure out how to turn IPv4 off without individually shooting their toes off. This would be part of that game plan.

Why?

I was told the same thing about 464xlat, we did not need another solution. If the ietf held the line against double translation i believe there would be exactly 1 ipv6 cellular provider in the world (verizon).

With 464xlat, afaik, there are globally 3 cellular providers that offer default ipv6 (464xlat at tmobile us and Orange PL and DS at VZ).

It does not matter if the cat is white or black, it matters that it catches mice.
