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. + + + + + + + +Mawatari, et al.

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. + + + + + + +Mawatari, et al.

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. + + + + + + + + +Mawatari, et al. Informational [Page 7] + +RFC 6877 464XLAT April 2013 + + + Destination IPv4 address + +----------------------------+ + | Global IPv4 address | + | assigned to IPv4 server | + +--------+ +----------------------------+ + | IPv4 | Source IPv4 address + | server | +----------------------------+ + +--------+ | Global IPv4 address | + ^ | assigned to IPv4 PLAT pool | + | +----------------------------+ + +--------+ + | PLAT | Stateful XLATE(IPv4:IPv6=1:n) + +--------+ + ^ + | + (IPv6 cloud) + Destination IPv6 address + +--------------------------------------------------------------+ + | IPv4-embedded IPv6 address | + | defined in Section 2.2 of RFC 6052 | + +--------------------------------------------------------------+ + Source IPv6 address + +--------------------------------------------------------------+ + | IPv4-embedded IPv6 address | + | defined in Section 2.2 of RFC 6052 | + +--------------------------------------------------------------+ + (IPv6 cloud) + ^ + | + +--------+ + | CLAT | Stateless XLATE(IPv4:IPv6=1:1) + +--------+ + ^ Destination IPv4 address + | +----------------------------+ + +--------+ | Global IPv4 address | + | IPv4 | | assigned to IPv4 server | + | client | +----------------------------+ + +--------+ Source IPv4 address + +----------------------------+ + | Private IPv4 address | + | assigned to IPv4 client | + +----------------------------+ + + Figure 3: Case of Enabling Only Stateless XLATE on CLAT + + + + + + + +Mawatari, et al. Informational [Page 8] + +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. + + + + + + + + +Mawatari, et al. Informational [Page 9] + +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. + + + + + + + + + +Mawatari, et al.
