Talk:Mapping of Address and Port

Latest comment: 11 years ago by The Anome

A moment of editorializing: I think MAP is the solution for IPv6 transition. It has everything: baked-in native IPv6, a single, simple routing architecture within the service provider's network, the absolute minimal amount of (unavoidable) NAT44 nastiness on the IPv4 side, and the elimination of the need for CGN boxes inside the network. The only downside is the need for new CPE (or at the very least, new CPE firmware) at the user end -- but this would have to happen for native IPv6 anyway, so there's no added cost for this strategy. And the whole thing can be rolled out incrementally, with deployment only to new customers at first. -- The Anome (talk) 12:03, 26 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
