DHCPv6 Options for Discovery NAT64 Prefixes
2019
Several IPv6 transition mechanisms require the usage of stateless or
stateful translators (commonly named as NAT64) able to allow IP/ICMP
communication between IPv4 and IPv6 networks. Those translators are
using either a default Well-Known Prefix (WKP), and/or one or several
additional Network Specific Prefix (NSP), which need to be configured
into the nodes willing to use the translator. Different translators
will likely have different IPv6 prefixes, to attract traffic to the
correct translator. Thus, an automatic translator prefix discovery
method is necessary. This document defines a DHCPv6-based method to
inform DHCPv6 clients the set of IPv6 and IPv4 prefixes it serves.
This DHCPv6 option can be used by several transition mechanisms such
as SIIT, 464XLAT, EAM.
