Abstract

In some application scenarios, it is necessary to be able to identify an user when CGN is deployed. This document defines a new IPv4 header option for host identification, which contains NAT mapping information, e.g. the internal source IP address before translation. Each time a NAT device performs translation on an IP packet, NAT mapping information will be added in the IP header. With the NAT mapping information, it will be easy to identify a host.
