Maybe it should, or should at least point out that discussion about prefix delegation can be … [Ballot comment] The document says nothing of prefix delegation. Maybe it should, or should at least point out that discussion about prefix delegation can be found in several of the references. The document says: For dual-stack ISP networks, dual-stack home gateways can simply switch off the v6-over-v4 function and forward both IPv6 and IPv4 traffic directly while the dual-stack CGN only keeps its v4-v4 NAT function. This approach is considered an unlikely choice, since we expect ISPs to choose the approach described as incremental CGN here because they want to avoid or are unable to complete dual-stack deployment completely. This text is somewhat confusing. I *think* you are saying that you can do all this in dual stack ISP network, but that if you were adopting this specification to begin with you did not have a dual stack network. Please clarify/rewrite, and make sure that the document does not seem to recommend against deploying dual stack ISP networks... Ari Keränen had these questions: 1. Introduction A smooth transition mechanism is also described in this document. It introduces an integrated configurable CGN device and an adaptive HG device. Both CGN and HG are re-usable devices during different transition periods. It avoid potential multiple upgrade. What does the last sentence mean? 2. An Incremental CGN Approach Most consumers remain primarily IPv4. Should that be, e.g., "Most consumers remain primarily in IPv4-only networks"? 2.4. Behavior of Dual-stack CGN When a dual-stack CGN receives a data packet from a dual-stack home gateway, it firstly checks whether the packet is a normal IPv4 packet or a v6-over-v4 tunnel packet. How is this check performed? And what if the host (i.e., not the HG) is using some v6-over-v4 mechanism; would that cause problems with the check? |

The security considerations include the following two statements: Further security analysis will be needed to understand double NAT security issues and tunnel security issues. and [RFC4891] describes how to protect tunnels using IPSec, but it is not clear whether doing so would be an important requirement. Taken together I've got to ask why this isn't experimental? This one is normal discuss: It's worth noting early that the proposal has not fully addressed the security considerations and that further analysis may show that the proposal might not be worth adopting based on what is found during the study of the security considerations. |

In particular, I would … [Ballot discuss] I think we need a document like this and it should be in the V6OPS scope to produce one. In particular, I would like to see a recommendation and operational considerations to use CGN + tunneled IPv6 service at an ISP. That seems a very likely configuration in many places. However, I'm somewhat unhappy with some parts of the document. In particular: - it portrays this as a new solution as opposed to recommended application of existing components - it brings in some IMHO unnecessary extensions and references - its treatment of IPv6-IPv4 translation aspects seems outdated (referring to NAT-PT) My suggestion is to go through the document once more and remove extra material and take the above focus comments into account, to see if you can cast the document in slightly different terms. More detailed comments: The document says: ISPs facing only one pressure out of two could adopt either CGN (for shortage of IPv6 addresses) or 6rd (to provide IPv6 connectivity services). I think you mean IPv4 addresses. The document says: In order to enable IPv4 hosts to access the IPv6 Internet and IPv6 hosts to access IPv4 Internet, NAT-PT [RFC2766, RFC4966] (or its replacement) can be integrated with the CGN. This is wrong. The replacement is already an RFC (or about to become one), and there is no reason to switch the reference to the right specification. Pointing to the old specification is harmful. Sections 2.3 and 2.4 would be better cast as "just use existing forwarding, NAT, and tunneling technology", than as something where you describe behaviour. I had to read the text multiple times to determine what was actually going on, and AFAICT there is no difference to the application of normal IP forwarding rules and tunnel termination logic. I think the usual rules are clearer than what the document describes, e.g., firstly checks whether the packet is a normal IPv4 packet or a v6-over-v4 tunnel packet. For a normal IPv4 packet, the CGN translates packet source address from a CGN-scope private IPv4 address into a public IPv4 address, and then send it to IPv4 Internet. The CGN records the v4-v4 address mapping information for inbound packets, just like normal NAT does. For a v6-over-v4 tunnel packet, the CGN needs to decapsulate it seems to be saying that we should particularly check tunnel packets, but I think the normal way is that the tunnel packet, being addressed to the CGN device will naturally enter different processing than packets routed/natted through it. Section 2.5 should mention MTU effects. The document says: An ISP can provide its IPv6-only customers with a network-layer translation service to satisfy this need. Such a service is not fully defined at this time, so we refer to it non-specifically as "NAT64". Current work in the IETF is focused on one particular proposal [I-D.ietf-behave-v6v4-xlate-stateful]. The NAT64 service can be provided as a common service located at the border between the ISP and the IPv4 Internet, beyond the dual stack CGN from the customer's viewpoint. It may be integrated into CGN devices too. This is quite outdated. The document says: [I-D.boucadair-dslite-interco-v4v6] describes a proposal to enhance a DS-lite solution with an additional feature to ease interconnection between IPv4 and IPv6 realms. Home users may encounter the problem of reaching legacy IPv4-only public services from IPv6-only clients. This problem already exists in early phases, but will become more serious over time. I'm concerned that we are unnecessarily listing all kinds of extensions that we don't even know are needed and which are definitely not in the current IETF agenda. Suggest deleting this paragraph. And delete this as well while you are at it: If a different technology than v4-v4 NAT is chosen for IPv4 address sharing, for example [I-D.ymbk-aplusp], the present approach could be suitably modified, for example replacing the v4-v4 NAT function by the A+P gateway function. The document says: For example, the appearance of IPv6 Route Advertisement messages or DHCPv6 messages can be used as a signal the availability of DS-Lite CGN. When an ISP decides to switch from incremental CGN to DS-Lite CGN, it may be that only a configuration change or a minor software update is needed on the CGNs. The home gateway can then detect this change and switch automatically to DS-Lite mode. The only impact on the home user will be to receive a different IPv6 prefix. I'm not sure I understand what I need to do here as an implementor, and whether all the necessary pieces in RAs are already defined. |

Do you mean "modified GRE" in which case how is it modified, or do you mean GRE supplemented by a signalling protocol to set up tunnels? ======== The security text on tunnel security seems a little light. If the ISP is going to consider the tunnel as own infrastructure and not needing to be policed, the ISP needs to consider policing those tunnel endpoint addresses at the boundary of the network. When an ISP decides to switch from incremental CGN to DS-Lite CGN, it may be that only a configuration change or a minor software update is needed on the CGNs. The home gateway can then detect this change and switch automatically to DS-Lite mode. This seems very speculative |

I found a few nits you might want to try to fix along the way. --- Section 1 Based on this fact, the Internet industry appears to have reached consensus that global IPv6 deployment is inevitable and has to be done expediently. Do you mean "it is expedient" or "it has to be done expeditiously"? --- "CPE" needs to be expanded on first use. --- It seems (to me, and from the usage made in the document) capriscious that 5969 should be a normative reference, but 5569 informational. --- Section 2.2 Other tunneling mechanisms such as 6over4 [RFC2529], 6to4 [RFC3056], the Intra-Site Automatic Tunnel Addressing Protocol (ISATAP) [RFC5214] or Virtual Enterprise Traversal (VET) [RFC5558] are also considered. The passive voice is to be avoided! By whom are these other tunneling mechanisms considered, to what end, and with what result? --- Section 2.4 When a dual-stack CGN receives a data packet from a dual-stack home gateway, it firstly checks whether the packet is a normal IPv4 packet or a v6-over-v4 tunnel packet. You need to say how it checks. |

These comments were written primarily for the transport area directors, but are copied to the document's authors for their information and to allow them to address any issues raised. The authors should consider this review together with any other last-call comments they receive. Please always CC tsv-dir@ietf.org if you reply to or forward this review. Summary: This draft proposes an incremental transition approach for IPv6 deployment that combines CGN and other existing technologies such as v6-v4 tunneling, dual stack home gateways. Transport Issues: This is an operational proposal to utilize existing proposal or methods and no new protocols or technologies are proposed in the draft. Hence, there is basically no transport related issue in the draft itself. There may be a risk that combining multiple address-translation and tunneling technologies cause new transport issue. However, since the technologies used in the draft are deterministically selected based on the source and destination addresses, I don't see any conflicting case to trigger such a risk. Other minor comments:: 1) Do you have any experimental results or feasibility studies for this proposal? If so, please refer the information. It will be useful for readers. 2) What is normal IPv4 packet in section 2.4? I guess it means non-encapsulated packet, but using more specific words would be preferable. 3) In section 2.7, there are two "For IPv6 traffic, a user ..." lines. This seems to be an editorial mistake. 4) It would be preferable that you can elaborate why the transition from NAT444 CGN or 6rd to the incremental CGN is easy in Section 3. 5) It is not clear to me when an ISP can decide to switch from incremental CGN. Does it require to update all network configurations and equipments in the ISP? Or is it possible to do it gradually? Regards, -- Yoshifumi Nishida nishida@sfc.wide.ad.jp |

The document shepherd believes that the document has received adequate review to advance. 1.c The document shepherd has no signficant quibbles with the content, and the concepts laid out in the document, which has we believe recieved recived adequate review. Review of transition mechanisms the document covers occurs as a matter of course in the behave and softwire working group. 1.d The document shepherd has no such concerns. 1.e Working group last call did not generate significant commentary either for or against. It would be reasonable to conclude that working group consensus for a document accepted as a working document remains in favor of the applicability of this document to the problem. 1.f No appeal is foreseen. 1.g All Idnits were addressed in draft-02 1.h Normative and Informative references have been split. no apparent problems with normative references are envisioned. 1.i IANA considerations is present. No consideration is required by IANA. 1.j No sections are written in formal language. 1.k Technical Summary Global IPv6 deployment was slower than originally expected. As IPv4 address exhaustion approaches, the IPv4 to IPv6 transition issues become more critical and less tractable. Host-based transition mechanisms used in dual stack environments are not able to meet the transition requirements. Most end users are not sufficiently expert to configure or maintain host-based transition mechanisms. Carrier- Grade NAT (CGN) devices with integrated transition mechanisms can reduce the operational change required during the IPv4 to IPv6 migration or coexistence period. This document proposes an incremental CGN approach for IPv6 transition. It can provide IPv6 access services for IPv6-enabled hosts and IPv4 access services for IPv4 hosts while leaving much of a legacy IPv4 ISP network unchanged. It is suitable for the initial stage of IPv4 to IPv6 migration. Unlike NAT444 based CGN alone, Incremental CGN also supports and encourages transition towards dual- stack or IPv6-only ISP networks. A smooth transition to IPv6 deployment is also described in this document. An integrated configurable CGN device and an adaptive Home Gateway (HG) device are introduced. Both HG and CGN are re-usable devices during different transition periods. It avoids potential multiple upgrades. It enables IPv6 migration to be incrementally achieved according to the real user requirements. Working Group Summary draft-ietf-v6ops-incremental-cgn-00, was accepted as v6ops WG document, 2009-11-17. Working Group Last Call completed on v6ops 10/27/10. draft 02 was was released to address grammar issues and idnits in document shepherd review. Document Quality Cross-area review from participants on the internet and transport areas has been a solicited and provided in the course of document socialization. Solicitation of directed reviews (particularly from OPS directorate) should probably be part of the post-last-call process. |
