+ 464XLAT: Combination of Stateful and Stateless Translation
+
+Abstract
+
+ This document describes an architecture (464XLAT) for providing
+ limited IPv4 connectivity across an IPv6-only network by combining
+ existing and well-known stateful protocol translation (as described
+ in RFC 6146) in the core and stateless protocol translation (as
+ described in RFC 6145) at the edge. 464XLAT is a simple and scalable
+ technique to quickly deploy limited IPv4 access service to IPv6-only
+ edge networks without encapsulation.

+RFC 6877 464XLAT April 2013
+
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ With the exhaustion of the unallocated IPv4 address pools, it will be
+ difficult for many networks to assign IPv4 addresses to end users.
+
+ This document describes an IPv4-over-IPv6 solution as one of the
+ techniques for IPv4 service extension and encouragement of IPv6
+ deployment. 464XLAT is not a one-for-one replacement of full IPv4
+ functionality. The 464XLAT architecture only supports IPv4 in the
+ client-server model, where the server has a global IPv4 address.
+ This means it is not fit for IPv4 peer-to-peer communication or
+ inbound IPv4 connections. 464XLAT builds on IPv6 transport and
+ includes full any-to-any IPv6 communication.
+
+ The 464XLAT architecture described in this document uses IPv4/IPv6
+ translation standardized in [RFC6145] and [RFC6146]. It does not
+ require DNS64 [RFC6147] since an IPv4 host may simply send IPv4
+ packets, including packets to an IPv4 DNS server, that will be
+ translated to IPv6 on the customer-side translator (CLAT) and back to
+ IPv4 on the provider-side translator (PLAT). 464XLAT networks may
+ use DNS64 [RFC6147] to enable single stateful translation [RFC6146]
+ instead of 464XLAT double translation where possible. The 464XLAT
+ architecture encourages the IPv6 transition by making IPv4 services
+ reachable across IPv6-only networks and providing IPv6 and IPv4
+ connectivity to single-stack IPv4 or IPv6 servers and peers.
+
+2. Terminology
+
+ PLAT: PLAT is provider-side translator (XLAT) that complies with
+ [RFC6146]. It translates N:1 global IPv6 addresses to global
+ IPv4 addresses, and vice versa.
+
+ CLAT: CLAT is customer-side translator (XLAT) that complies with
+ [RFC6145]. It algorithmically translates 1:1 private IPv4
+ addresses to global IPv6 addresses, and vice versa. The CLAT
+ function is applicable to a router or an end-node such as a
+ mobile phone. The CLAT should perform IP routing and
+ forwarding to facilitate packets forwarding through the
+ stateless translation even if it is an end-node. The CLAT as
+ a common home router or wireless Third Generation Partnership
+ Project (3GPP) router is expected to perform gateway
+ functions such as being a DHCP server and DNS proxy for local
+ clients. The CLAT uses different IPv6 prefixes for CLAT-side
+ and PLAT-side IPv4 addresses and therefore does not comply
+ with the sentence "Both IPv4-translatable IPv6 addresses and
+ IPv4-converted IPv6 addresses SHOULD use the same prefix." in
+
+
+
+
+
+Mawatari, et al. Informational [Page 3]
+
+RFC 6877 464XLAT April 2013
+
+
+ Section 3.3 of [RFC6052]. The CLAT does not facilitate
+ communications between a local IPv4-only node and an IPv6-
+ only node on the Internet.
+
+3. Motivation and Uniqueness of 464XLAT
+
+ The list below describes the motivation for 464XLAT and its unique
+ characteristics.
+
+ o 464XLAT has minimal IPv4 resource requirements and maximum IPv4
+ efficiency through statistical multiplexing.
+
+ o No new protocols are required; there is quick deployment.
+
+ o IPv6-only networks are simpler and therefore less expensive to
+ operate than dual-stack networks.
+
+ o 464XLAT has consistent native IP-based monitoring and traffic
+ engineering. Capacity-planning techniques can be applied without
+ the indirection or obfuscation of a tunnel.
+
+4. Network Architecture
+
+ Examples of 464XLAT architectures are shown in the figures in the
+ following sections.
+
+ Wireline Network Architecture can be used in situations where there
+ are clients behind the CLAT, regardless of the type of access service
+ -- for example, fiber to the home (FTTH), Data Over Cable Service
+ Interface Specification (DOCSIS), or WiFi.
+
+ Wireless 3GPP Network Architecture can be used in situations where a
+ client terminates the wireless access network and possibly acts as a
+ router with tethered clients.
+
+4.1. Wireline Network Architecture
+
+ The private IPv4 host in this diagram can reach global IPv4 hosts via
+ translation on both the CLAT and PLAT. On the other hand, the IPv6
+ host can reach other IPv6 hosts on the Internet directly without
+ translation. This means that the Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) /
+ CLAT can not only have the function of a CLAT but also the function
+ of an IPv6 native router for native IPv6 traffic. In this diagram,
+ the v4p host behind the CLAT has [RFC1918] addresses.

+4.2. Wireless 3GPP Network Architecture
+
+ The CLAT function on the User Equipment (UE) provides an [RFC1918]
+ address and IPv4 default route to the local node's network stack.
+ The applications on the UE can use the private IPv4 address for
+ reaching global IPv4 hosts via translation on both the CLAT and the
+ PLAT. On the other hand, reaching IPv6 hosts (including hosts
+ presented via DNS64 [RFC6147]) does not require the CLAT function on
+ the UE.
+
+ Presenting a private IPv4 network for tethering via NAT44 and
+ stateless translation on the UE is also an application of the CLAT.

+5. Applicability
+
+5.1. Wireline Network Applicability
+
+ When an Internet Service Provider (ISP) has IPv6 access service and
+ provides 464XLAT, the ISP can provide outgoing IPv4 service to end
+ users across an IPv6 access network. The result is that edge network
+ growth is no longer tightly coupled to the availability of scarce
+ IPv4 addresses.
+
+ If another ISP operates the PLAT, the edge ISP is only required to
+ deploy an IPv6 access network. All ISPs do not need IPv4 access
+ networks. They can migrate their access network to a simple and
+ highly scalable IPv6-only environment.
+
+
+
+Mawatari, et al. Informational [Page 6]
+
+RFC 6877 464XLAT April 2013
+
+
+5.2. Wireless 3GPP Network Applicability
+
+ At the time of writing, in April 2013, the vast majority of mobile
+ networks are compliant to Pre-Release 9 3GPP standards. In Pre-
+ Release 9 3GPP networks, Global System for Mobile Communications
+ (GSM) and Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) networks
+ must signal and support both IPv4 and IPv6 Packet Data Protocol (PDP)
+ attachments to access IPv4 and IPv6 network destinations [RFC6459].
+ Since there are two PDPs required to support two address families,
+ this is double the number of PDPs required to support the status quo
+ of one address family, which is IPv4.
+
+ For the cases of connecting to an IPv4 literal or IPv4 socket that
+ require IPv4 connectivity, the CLAT function on the UE provides a
+ private IPv4 address and IPv4 default route on the host for the
+ applications to reference and bind to. Connections sourced from the
+ IPv4 interface are immediately routed to the CLAT function and passed
+ to the IPv6-only mobile network, destined for the PLAT. In summary,
+ the UE performs the CLAT function that does a stateless translation
+ [RFC6145], but only when required by an IPv4-only scenario such as
+ IPv4 literals or IPv4-only sockets. The mobile network has a PLAT
+ that does stateful translation [RFC6146].
+
+ 464XLAT works with today's existing systems as much as possible.
+ 464XLAT is compatible with existing solutions for network-based deep
+ packet inspection like 3GPP standardized Policy and Charging Control
+ (PCC) [TS.23203].
+
+6. Implementation Considerations
+
+6.1. IPv6 Address Format
+
+ The IPv6 address format in 464XLAT is defined in Section 2.2 of
+ [RFC6052].
+
+6.2. IPv4/IPv6 Address Translation Chart
+
+ This chart offers an explanation about address translation
+ architecture using a combination of stateful translation at the PLAT
+ and stateless translation at the CLAT. The client on this chart is
+ delegated an IPv6 prefix from a prefix delegation mechanism such as
+ DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation (DHCPv6-PD) [RFC3633]; therefore, it has a
+ dedicated IPv6 prefix for translation.

+
+RFC 6877 464XLAT April 2013
+
+
+6.3. IPv6 Prefix Handling
+
+ There are two relevant IPv6 prefixes that the CLAT must be aware of.
+
+ First, CLAT must know its own IPv6 prefixes. The CLAT should acquire
+ a /64 for the uplink interface, a /64 for all downlink interfaces,
+ and a dedicated /64 prefix for the purpose of sending and receiving
+ statelessly translated packets. When a dedicated /64 prefix is not
+ available for translation from DHCPv6-PD [RFC3633], the CLAT may
+ perform NAT44 for all IPv4 LAN packets so that all the LAN-originated
+ IPv4 packets appear from a single IPv4 address and are then
+ statelessly translated to one interface IPv6 address that is claimed
+ by the CLAT via the Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) and defended
+ with Duplicate Address Detection (DAD).
+
+ Second, the CLAT must discover the PLAT-side translation IPv6 prefix
+ used as a destination of the PLAT. The CLAT will use this prefix as
+ the destination of all translation packets that require stateful
+ translation to the IPv4 Internet. It may discover the PLAT-side
+ translation prefix using [Discovery-Heuristic]. In the future, some
+ other mechanisms, such as a new DHCPv6 option, will possibly be
+ defined to communicate the PLAT-side translation prefix.
+
+6.4. DNS Proxy Implementation
+
+ The CLAT should implement a DNS proxy as defined in [RFC5625]. The
+ case of an IPv4-only node behind the CLAT querying an IPv4 DNS server
+ is undesirable since it requires both stateful and stateless
+ translation for each DNS lookup. The CLAT should set itself as the
+ DNS server via DHCP or other means and should proxy DNS queries for
+ IPv4 and IPv6 LAN clients. Using the CLAT-enabled home router or UE
+ as a DNS proxy is a normal consumer gateway function and simplifies
+ the traffic flow so that only IPv6 native queries are made across the
+ access network. DNS queries from the client that are not sent to the
+ DNS proxy on the CLAT must be allowed and are translated and
+ forwarded just like any other IP traffic.
+
+6.5. CLAT in a Gateway
+
+ The CLAT feature can be implemented in a common home router or mobile
+ phone that has a tethering feature. Routers with a CLAT feature
+ should also provide common router services such as DHCP of [RFC1918]
+ addresses, DHCPv6, NDP with Router Advertisement, and DNS service.

+RFC 6877 464XLAT April 2013
+
+
+6.6. CLAT-to-CLAT Communications
+
+ 464XLAT is a hub and spoke architecture focused on enabling IPv4-only
+ services over IPv6-only networks. Interactive Connectivity
+ Establishment (ICE) [RFC5245] may be used to support peer-to-peer
+ communication within a 464XLAT network.
+
+7. Deployment Considerations
+
+7.1. Traffic Engineering
+
+ Even if the ISP for end users is different from the PLAT provider
+ (e.g., another ISP), it can implement traffic engineering
+ independently from the PLAT provider. Detailed reasons are below:
+
+ 1. The ISP for end users can figure out the IPv4 destination address
+ from the translated IPv6 packet header, so it can implement
+ traffic engineering based on the IPv4 destination address (e.g.,
+ traffic monitoring for each IPv4 destination address, packet
+ filtering for each IPv4 destination address, etc.). The
+ tunneling methods do not have such an advantage, without any deep
+ packet inspection for processing the inner IPv4 packet of the
+ tunnel packet.
+
+ 2. If the ISP for end users can assign an IPv6 prefix greater than
+ /64 to each subscriber, this 464XLAT architecture can separate
+ the IPv6 prefix for native IPv6 packets and the XLAT prefixes for
+ IPv4/IPv6 translation packets. Accordingly, it can identify the
+ type of packets ("native IPv6 packets" and "IPv4/IPv6 translation
+ packets") and implement traffic engineering based on the IPv6
+ prefix.
+
+7.2. Traffic Treatment Scenarios
+
+ The below table outlines how different permutations of connectivity
+ are treated in the 464XLAT architecture.
+
+ Note: 464XLAT double translation treatment will be stateless when a
+ dedicated /64 is available for translation on the CLAT. Otherwise,
+ the CLAT will have both stateful and stateless since it requires
+ NAT44 from the LAN to a single IPv4 address and then stateless
+ translation to a single IPv6 address.

+Appendix A. Examples of IPv4/IPv6 Address Translation
+
+ The following is an example of IPv4/IPv6 address translation on the
+ 464XLAT architecture.
+
+ In the case that an IPv6 prefix greater than /64 is assigned to an
+ end user by such as DHCPv6-PD [RFC3633], the CLAT can use a dedicated
+ /64 from the assigned IPv6 prefix.
