1. Introduction
This document provides Stateless Automatic IPv4 over IPv6 Tunneling
(SA46T) base specification.
The basic strategy for IPv6 deployment is dual stack. Viewing this
strategy from operational side, operation cost of dual stack is
higher than single stack operation. Viewing from future, IPv6 only
operation is more reasonable rather than IPv4 only operation.
Therefore IPv6 only operation is desired.
SA46T makes backbone network to IPv6 only. And also, SA46T can stack
many IPv4 networks, i.e. the networks using same IPv4 (private)
address, without interdependence.
SA46T is gateway technology, not protocol.
2. Basic Network Configuration
Figure 1 shows network configuration with SA46T. The network consists
of three parts. Backbone network, stub network, and SA46T.
Backbone network is operated with IPv6 only. Stub network has three
cases. IPv4 only, Dual Stack (both IPv4 and IPv6), and IPv6 only.
SA46T connects backbone network and stub network in case IPv4 still
works in that stub network. If stub network is IPv6 only, SA46T is
not needed.
Campus network, corporate network, and ISP network are the example
for such network.

3. Basic Function of SA46T
SA46T has mainly two function. One is IPv4 over IPv6 Tunneling, and
another is advertise route for stub network.
3.1. IPv4 over IPv6 Tunneling
SA46T encapsulates IPv4 packet to IPv6 from stub network to backbone
network, and decapsulates IPv6 packet to IPv4 from backbone network
to stub network. Figure 2 shows such movement.

Internet-Draft SA46T spec February 2010
SA46T MUST support tunnel MTU discovery[RFC1853]. When encapsulated
IPv6 Packet size exceed path MTU and inner IPv4 packet have the Don't
Fragment bit is set, SA46T MUST return ICMP Destination unreachable
message with Type3 Code4, fragmentation needed and DF set[RFC0792].
In case IPv6, SA46T just relays IPv6 packet.

Figure 3
By IPv4 over IPv6 function, SA46T make backbone network to IPv6 only.
3.2. SA46T address architecture
SA46T address is a IPv6 address used in outer IPv6 header which
encapsulate IPv4 packet by SA46T.
Figure 4 shows SA46T address architecture

+-----------------------+--------------------------+--------------+
| SA46T address prefix | IPv4 network plane ID | IPv4 address |
+-----------------------+--------------------------+--------------+
Figure 4
SA46T address consists of three parts as follows.
SA46T address prefix
SA46T address prefix indicates this packet is encapsulated by
SA46T and MUST be encapsulated by SA46T. This value is
preconfigured to all SA46T in the networks.
Matsuhira Expires August 5, 2010 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft SA46T spec February 2010
IPv4 network plane ID
IPv4 network plane ID is an identifier of IPv4 network stack over
IPv6 backbone network. This value is preconfigured depend on the
SA46T belong which IPv4 network plane. For more detail see
section 5.
IPv4 address
IPv4 address in inner IPv4 packet.
SA46T address is resolved copying IPv4 address in inner IPv4 packet,
and preconfigured values, SA46T prefix and IPv4 network plane ID.
Table 1 shows SA46T IPv4 network plane ID length (m) and number of
plane.
+----+----------------------+
| m | # of plane |
+----+----------------------+
| 16 | 65536 |
| 32 | 4294967296 |
| 64 | 18446744073709551616 |
+----+----------------------+
Table 1
3.3. Route Advertisement
SA46T converts stub network's IPv4 route to SA46T IPv6 route and
advertises to backbone network. And reverse direction, SA46T
converts SA46T IPv6 route to IPv4 route, that advertises other IPv4
stub networks.
If IPv4 stub network's prefix length is n, the prefix length of SA46T
IPv6 route which converts from that IPv4 prefix is 128 - 32 + n.
Table 2 shows detail value.
+--------------------+--------------------------+
| IPv4 prefix length | SA46T IPv6 prefix length |
+--------------------+--------------------------+
| /8 | /104 |
| /16 | /112 |
| /24 | /120 |
+--------------------+--------------------------+
Table 2
Matsuhira Expires August 5, 2010 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft SA46T spec February 2010
The IPv4 route for stub network is map to SA46T IPv6 route one to
one, so number of route of IPv4 is same as number of route of SA46T
IPv6 route. Total number of route is same as when backbone network
operate dual stack, without SA46T.
In stub network, usual dynamic routing protocol for IPv4 and IPv6 can
be used such as RIPv2[RFC2453], RIPng[RFC2080], OSPFv2[RFC2328],
OSPFv3[RFC2740]. Similarly, in backbone network, usual dynamic
routing protocol for IPv6 can be used such as RIPng[RFC2080],
OSPFv3[RFC2740].
4. SA46T address format
SA46T can be used closely in the backbone network, so SA46T address
does not be advertised outside of the backbone network, and IPv6
packet which contains SA46T address does not be forwarded outside of
the backbone network.
So, SA46T address format and SA46T address prefix can be decided each
backbone network. But for your information, two examples are shown
as follows. First one is based on Unique Local IPv4 Unicast Address,
and the second one is based on IPv6 Global Unicast Address.
Of course, SA46T can be used in the Internet, or between the ASs.
This case is discussed shortly in section 4.3.
4.1. Unique Local IPv6 Unicast Address as SA46T address
This example is based on Unique Local IPv6 Unicast Address [RFC4193].
Figure 5 shows Unique Local IPv6 Unicast Address Format.

[RFC3587].

4.3. Global SA46T address format
SA46T can be used in The Internet, or between AS. This is achieved
by recognizing SA46T address format as common address. Such address
should be Global SA46T address.
Global SA46T address format and prefix requires IANA assignment of
IPv6 address prefix. Global SA46T address is proposed in
[I-D.draft-matsuhira-sa46t-gaddr].

Internet-Draft SA46T spec February 2010
5. Stacking IPv4 Networks
SA46T can provide VPN like service to stub networks by using
different IPv4 network plane ID value. Table 3 shows example of IPv4
network plane ID and its usage.
If backbone network operator provide IPv4 privates network service to
Organization A, backbone network operator sets IPv4 network plane ID
value =1 to the SA46T which connects stub network of organization A.
If there are five stub network of organization A, backbone network
operator sets same IPv4 network plane ID = 1, to five SA46Ts which
connect stub network of organization A. If there are one hundred stub
network of organization B, backbone network operator sets same IPv4
network plane ID = 2, to one hundred SA46Ts which connect stub
network of organization B. If a new stub network in organization B
join, backbone network operator configures same IPv4 network plane ID
= 2, to the new stub network only, which connect stub network of
organization B, and no configuration is needed to one hundred SA46Ts
which are already connected.
Such configuration, that means same stub network group to same IPv4
network plane ID value, is simple and easy to understand, so, it is
expected that possibility of misconfiguration is very low. And also,
number of configuration is minimum, that mean, number of
configuration is same as number of stub networks, and add new stub
network, configure to new one only.
Describe above, SA46T can provide VPN like service, for example,
Intranet or extranet. And, after IPv4 global address running out,
some service provider may want to reuse IPv4 private address. SA46T
can provide such IPv4 private address networks over single IPv6
backbone network. By SA46T, some service providers may reuse IPv4
private address.

Table 3
6. Redundancy of SA46T
SA46T brings no limit for redundancy. Figure 9 shows such example in
case two connection between backbone network and stub network.
Number of link between backbone network and stub network is not
limited, and different type of link can be used, for example, for
wire and wireless.
Configuration of SA46Ts, which connect same stub network, is same.
That mean same SA46T prefix and same IPv4 network plane ID value.

7. Example of SA46T Operation
7.1. Basic SA46T Operation
Figure 10 shows SA46T operation which does not use IPv4 network plane
ID. In this example, two stub network is connected to backbone
network via SA46T. One stub network is 10.1.1.0/24 sub network, and
the other is 10.1.2.0/24 sub network.
When SA46T receives IPv4 route advertisement, then SA46T convert this
IPv4 route to IPv6 route by address resolution to SA46T address, and
advertise this IPv6 route to backbone network. When SA46T receives
IPv6 route advertisements, then SA46T converts this IPv6 route to
IPv4 route if this IPv6 route is match SA46T address ( same prefix
with SA46T), and advertise this IPv4 route to stub network.
In this example. IPv4 route, 10.1.1.0/24 is converted to IPv6 route,
<SA46Tprefix>:10.1.1.0/120,and IPv4 route, 10.1.2.0/24 is converted
to IPv6 route, <SA46Tprefix>:10.1.2.0/120 at SA46T from stub network
to backbone network. And, from backbone network to stub network,
IPv6 route, <SA46Tprefix>:10.1.1.0/120 is converted to IPv4 route,
10.1.1.0/24, and IPv6 route, <SA46Tprefix>:10.1.2.0/120 is converted
to IPv4 route, 10.1.2.0/24.

Figure 10
7.2. SA46T Operation with plane ID
Figure 11 shows SA46T operation which uses IPv4 network plane ID. In
this example, there are two planes, and two stub network in each
plane is connected to backbone network via SA46T. In each plane, one
stub network is 10.1.1.0/24 sub network, and the other is 10.1.2.0/24
sub network, that means same IPv4 address is used in different plane.
When SA46T receives IPv4 route advertisements, then SA46T converts
this IPv4 route to IPv6 route by address resolution to SA46T address,
and advertise this IPv6 route to backbone network. When SA46T
receives IPv6 route advertisements, then SA46T converts this IPv6
route to IPv4 route if this IPv6 route is match SA46T address ( same
prefix with SA46T), and advertises this IPv4 route to stub network.
In this example in plane #1. IPv4 route, 10.1.1.0/24 is converted to
IPv6 route, <SA46Tprefix><#1>:10.1.1.0/120,and IPv4 route,
10.1.2.0/24 is converted to IPv6 route, <SA46Tprefix><#1>:10.1.2.0/
120 at SA46T from stub network to backbone network. And, from
backbone network to stub network, IPv6 route, <SA46Tprefix><#
1>:10.1.1.0/120 is converted to IPv4 route, 10.1.1.0/24, and IPv6
route, <SA46Tprefix><#1>:10.1.2.0/120 is converted to IPv4 route,
10.1.2.0/24.
And also, In this example in plane #2. IPv4 route, 10.1.1.0/24 is
converted to IPv6 route, <SA46Tprefix><#2>:10.1.1.0/120,and IPv4
route, 10.1.2.0/24 is converted to IPv6 route, <SA46Tprefix><#
2>:10.1.2.0/120 at SA46T from stub network to backbone network. And,
from backbone network to stub network, IPv6 route, <SA46Tprefix><#
2>:10.1.1.0/120 is converted to IPv4 route, 10.1.1.0/24, and IPv6
Matsuhira Expires August 5, 2010 [Page 13]
Internet-Draft SA46T spec February 2010
route, <SA46Tprefix><#2>:10.1.2.0/120 is converted to IPv4 route,
10.1.2.0/24.
In IPv6 space, address <SA46Tprefix><#1>:10.1.1.1 and address
<SA46Tprefix><#2>:10.1.1.1 are different address, route
<SA46Tprefix><#1>:10.1.1.0/120 and route <SA46Tprefix><#2>:10.1.1.0/
120 are different route, although in IPv4 space, address 10.1.1.1 in
plane #1 and 10.1.1.1 in plane#2 are same address, route 10.1.1.0/24
in plane#1 and route 10.1.1.0/24 in plane#2 are same route.

least less than Dual Stack)
o Can allocate IPv4 address to stub networks, which used in backbone
network before installing SA46T
o Less configuration
o No need for special protocol
o No dependent Layer 2 network
o Can Stack IPv4 Private networks
o Easy stop IPv4 operation in stub network for future ( just remove
SA46T)
o Provide redundancy
9. IANA Considerations
This document makes no request of IANA.
Note to RFC Editor: this section may be removed on publication as an
RFC.
10. Security Considerations
SA46T use automatic tunneling technologies. Security consideration
related tunneling technologies are discussed in RFC2893[RFC2893],
RFC2267[RFC2267], etc.
