Look ma, no IPv4. 🙂

[RFC net-next 00/15] Introducing ipxlat: a stateless IPv4/IPv6 translation device

Jool(stateful and stateless), NAT46 (OpenWRT only), CLAT with eBPF, now ipxlat within Kernel, tayga outside....

I am getting confused.

#1107302 - New upstream fork - Debian Bug report logs

Nice! NAT64 in action, My IPv6-only jail can successfully talk with Github. No tayga, just the new "af-to" feature, that the "pf" firewall got in 15.0-RELEASE:

pass in quick on bastille0 inet6 from $jail_net to 64:ff9b::/96 \
af-to inet from ($ext_if) keep state

This is genuinly nice! 🙂

@T_X @axx I made the switch to #NAT64-only on the default network of #FOSDEM 13(?) years ago. It broke So. Much. Stuff.

I knew the former maintainer of the network tooling from the Linux Kernel Summit, and ran into him by chance that year. #Ubuntu was completely broken on NAT64-only, it did not even bring up the network interfaces, and we sent people who came to the NOC to their booth.

I also sent that former maintainer over there.

They fixed things very quickly.

Nachdem unser IPv6-Mostly Setup endlich halbwegs rund läuft, sind unsere NAT64 Server regelmäßig ans Limit der möglichen Verbindungen gekommen, die sie übersetzten können.

Wir haben deswegen noch, pro Server, 8 weitere IPv4 Adressen in unseren Pool geholt.
Da diese Adressen exklusiv für das das NAT64 sind, steigt die Kapazität auf fast das 10-fache.

So ist auch Stoßzeiten nun mehr als genug Luft nach oben und ihr könnt ohne Probleme weiter surfen!

NAT64 and 464XLAT on ROS how-to

Here is a working NAT64 solution for homelab folks wanting to experiment with IPv6-only, or their provider only offers IPv6 with IPv4 over CG-NAT. Full 464XLAT operation is achieved when the client devices include a CLAT, such as Apple devices. This solution does require the ISP provide an IPv4 address, so it won’t work if the provider is IPv6-only and doesn’t provide NAT64 in their network, Ive read that some do. My network is a fairly typical dual-stack setup where my ISP offers CG-NATed IPv4...

@nuintari It's been interesting to try #IPv6only with #NAT64 these past few months after running dual stack on home, office and datacenter networks for nearly two decades. I've rarely ever encountered NAT64 except in special circumstances (eg. FOSDEM).

It's been interesting to see what breaks. eg. #Tor

Most stuff is fine, except where someone has half-enabled #IPv6
