Subject: RFC6296 (NPTv6) for ip6tables
Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2012 13:42:03 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CALFTrnP3xr89ej_f9CEd4LdoUZ5=a4OP__5oPuVa2gto1FSFUA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

A while back Kaber posted a kind of "fist stab" at implementations for
NPTv6 and other "NAT" -like functionality.

https://github.com/kaber/nf-nat-ipv6

Understanding that the use of "NAT" with v6 can be a religious issue;
I'm not trying to start a flame war on it or anything.

Two questions:

1) Are there any plans to include this functionality in a production
release of iptables (perhaps even just having it be a compile option
disabled by default)

2) Has any more work been done on this since the work by Kaber
mentioned above?  If so, where can I find it?
