Hi,
I have a question about ipv6 and nat.
Suppose you have a box with 2 NICs, one running ipv6 attached to the
main network and one running ipv4 directly attached to an old device
that does not support ipv6. Thus, the box with two NICs has to play the
role of protocol translation, by taking IPV6 packets and send them with
IPV4 to the old device
Is it possible to directly DNAT packets or do I have to do something
different?
Thank you,
Ottavio

It sounds like you want NAT64, eg see
