I had thought of that. Couldn't the statefulness/negotiated identity of
unauthenticated IPsec (and other stateful tunnelling protocols) at
least be the minimum threshold of what is allowed blindly?

Mark.

This is the informative text in Section 2.2 of the Overview, whereas  
the Detailed Recommendations are split between sections 3.2.4 and  
3.2.5.  I think it would be more helpful if you were to address your  
concerns about sections 3.2.4 first, and 3.2.5 separately if necessary.

Interim meeting on ipv4-ipv6 co-existence - latest APBP document

The agenda in http://trac.tools.ietf.org/area/int/trac/wiki/v4v6interim
has, for the APBP item of the agenda, draft-despres-v6ops-apbp as the
reference document.

In addition, slides 1-11 of the Dublin presentation
www.ietf.org/proceedings/08jul/slides/v6ops-8/v6ops-8, which are more up
to date, are useful.

Slides 12-20 can be ignored.
(The ad hoc protocol, despite its simplicity, is now proposed to be
replaced by an even simpler use of DHCP, the mapping between IPv4
address + port range and IPv6 addresses becoming static).

New material on this is planned to be brought to the meeting.

Note also that APBP (actually its revised version) fits in the "tunnel 
based solutions" item of the agenda.

Regards,

RD

implications of 6to4 for v6coex

everyone--

I've been reviewing RFC 3056, RFC 3068 and RFC 3964 with an eye toward  
composing draft guidelines for service providers deploying 6to4 relays  
for the exclusive use of their subscribers, i.e. *not* public 6to4  
relay services.  In the process, I've come to think that some  
additional recommendations from IETF are in order, specifically to  
deal with IPv6-IPv4 Coexistence (V6COEX) issues.  The intent of this  
message is to start a discussion on the topic.

I believe section 5.2 "Mixed scenario with relay to native IPv6" in  
RFC 3056 adequately describes the scenario of interest to the V6COEX  
effort.

In this scenario, the service provider has a mix of offerings,  
including 1) IPv4 service at globally routed addresses and 2) native  
or tunneled IPv6 service at globally routed addresses.  The V6COEX  
issue arises when a node in subscriber A, receiving IPv4-only service  
in its delegated 192.0.2.0/24 subnet, e.g. 192.0.2.1, elects to become  
a 6to4 site with its corresponding 6to4 prefix 2002:c000:201::/48 in  
order to communicate with native IPv6 nodes at subscriber B in the  
2001:db8:1::/48 prefix.

Here's an ASCII diagram to show how this scenario presents a V6COEX  
issue:

Subcriber                       Service Provider                Public
Networks                        Interior                        Internet

Re: translator friendly DNS Proxy

Sorry, I forget to respond to another question.

I think there are not big differences between my+masahito's proposal  
and Bagnulo's.
There are some minor differences, like the method how to identify the  
synthetic
address. Even this, the concept is very close to snapt, since both  
proposed to
be recognize on around application layer.

Actually, the behavior is what I am insisting on my two proposals.
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-miyata-v6ops-trans-approach-01.txt
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-miyata-v6ops-snatpt-00.txt

And my presentation in 71st IETF. The presentation was done by Fred on  
behalf of me.

I and Masahito know that NAT-PT translation engine works with totd  
like dns proxy.
We have the implementations for more than 5 years. The behavior is  
very popular
among translator guys. It was introduced with TRT around 2000, as  
draft-endo-v6ops-dnsproxy-00.txt
mentioned. ;-)

I would respectfully ask Bagnulo, what is the biggest difference  
between us.

Dan, I agree with your modification request. Thanks a lot!

Fwd: New Version Notification for draft-miyata-v6ops-snatpt-01

Hi all,

I updated my ID sNATPT, since previous one was expired in Aug.
I enriched the chapter of applicability for your easy understanding.
# I did not changed the file name, yet.

I appreciate your comments.
