        <content type="html">Thanks for merging the PR. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;There are still some major points to address before putting the doc in the IETF LC, in particular the following points:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;# Do we need to also tweak this part from 6147?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Section 7.3 of RFC6147 has the following:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;   Note that the IPv4 address can be a public or a&lt;br&gt;   private address; the latter does not present any additional&lt;br&gt;   difficulty, since an NSP must be used as Pref64::/96 (in this&lt;br&gt;   scenario, the usage of the Well-Known Prefix is not supported as&lt;br&gt;   discussed in [RFC6052&lt;https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6052&gt;]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;# Idem for RFC 6877&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Section 1 says:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;   The 464XLAT architecture *** only *** supports IPv4 in the&lt;br&gt;   client-server model, where the server has a global IPv4 address.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Section 2 has also:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;   PLAT:   PLAT is provider-side translator (XLAT) that complies with&lt;br&gt;           [RFC6146&lt;https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc6146/&gt;]  It translates N:1 global IPv6 addresses to global&lt;br&gt;           IPv4 addresses, and vice versa.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;   CLAT:   CLAT is customer-side translator (XLAT) that complies with&lt;br&gt;           [RFC6145&lt;https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc6145/&gt;]  It algorithmically translates 1:1 private IPv4&lt;br&gt;           addresses to global IPv6 addresses, and vice versa.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The use of WKP will lead to non-global IPv6 addresses.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;# Idem for RFC 7050&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Appendix B says:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;   The IPv4 addresses for the well-known name cannot be non-global IPv4&lt;br&gt;   addresses as listed in the Section 3 of [RFC5735]&lt;https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc5735/#section-3&gt;.  Otherwise, DNS64&lt;br&gt;   servers might not perform AAAA record synthesis when the well-known&lt;br&gt;   prefix is used, as stated in Section 3.1 of [RFC6052]&lt;https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc6052/#section-3.1&gt;.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;# Suggestions to address other points in the review: https://github.com/furry13/6052-update-wkp1918/pull/12</content>

	  <abstract>   This document modifies the deployment guidance provided in
   Section 3.1 of RFC 6052 (IPv6 Addressing of IPv4/IPv6 Translators)
   that IPv4/IPv6 Translators must not use the Well-Known Prefix
   64:ff9b::/96 to represent non-globally reachable IPv4 addresses, such
   as those defined in RFC 1918 (Address Allocation for Private
   Internets) or listed in Section 2.2.2 of RFC 6890 (Special-Purpose IP
   Address Registries).  This change enables IPv6-only nodes to reach
   IPv4-only services with specific non-globally reachable addresses by
   leveraging the Well-Known Prefix.

   This document updates RFC 6052 to allow packets in which an address
   is composed of the Well-Known Prefix and specific non-globally
   reachable IPv4 addresses to be translated.

Please send substantive comments to the&lt;br&gt;last-call@ietf.org mailing list, with v6ops@ietf.org copied, no later than&lt;br&gt;2026-11-12.  Please retain the beginning of the Subject line to facilitate&lt;br&gt;automated sorting.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Abstract&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;   This document discusses a deployment scenario called &quot;an IPv6-mostly&lt;br&gt;   network&quot;, when IPv6-only and IPv4-enabled endpoints coexist on the&lt;br&gt;   same network (e.g. local area network (LAN)).  This approach enables&lt;br&gt;   incremental transition from dual-stack to IPv6-only networks by&lt;br&gt;   allowing IPv6-capable devices to remain IPv6-only while the network&lt;br&gt;   is seamlessly supplying IPv4 addresses to those devices that require&lt;br&gt;   them.  This document discusses the requirements, recommendations, and&lt;br&gt;   challenges associated with deploying IPv6-mostly networks in&lt;br&gt;   enterprise and public Wi-Fi environments.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The file can be obtained via&lt;br&gt;https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-v6ops-6mops/&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</content>

	  <abstract>   This document discusses a deployment scenario called &quot;an IPv6-mostly
   network&quot;, when IPv6-only and IPv4-enabled endpoints coexist on the
   same network (e.g. local area network (LAN)).  This approach enables
   incremental transition from dual-stack to IPv6-only networks by
   allowing IPv6-capable devices to remain IPv6-only while the network
   is seamlessly supplying IPv4 addresses to those devices that require
   them.  This document discusses the requirements, recommendations, and
   challenges associated with deploying IPv6-mostly networks in
   enterprise and public Wi-Fi environments.

        <content type="html"># Document Shepherd Write-Up for Working Group Documents&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;*This version is dated 9 October 2026.*&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thank you for serving as a document shepherd. One of the responsibilities of&lt;br&gt;the shepherd is to consider and answer the questions in this write-up to&lt;br&gt;provide helpful context to Last Call and Internet Engineering Steering Group&lt;br&gt;([IESG][1]) reviewers. Your diligence in completing it is appreciated. The full&lt;br&gt;role of the shepherd is described in [RFC 4858][2]. At a minimum, you will need&lt;br&gt;the cooperation of the authors and editors to complete these checks.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Note that some numbered items contain multiple, related questions; please be&lt;br&gt;sure to answer all of them. It is highly appreciated to elaborate your answers&lt;br&gt;with more contextual information (as appropriate).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;When an item does not apply to the document, please indicate &quot;N/A&quot;.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;NOTE: Please remove the above text when posting your write-up.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;## Document History &amp; Implementations&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;1.  Have the Chairs confirmed Working Group (WG) consensus for this document?&lt;br&gt;    Did they indicate any issues to be called out with regard to that rough&lt;br&gt;    consensus? If so, what were they?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Please supply any additional information about the quality of the WG&lt;br&gt;    consensus from the Shepherd&#x27;s view (e.g., whether the consensus represents&lt;br&gt;    the strong concurrence of a few individuals, with others being silent, or&lt;br&gt;    did it reach a broad agreement).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    The WG reached agreement after active discussion and an extended WGLC. Multiple&lt;br&gt;    participants reviewed the document, and comments were addressed in subsequent &lt;br&gt;    revisions. No unresolved objections remain.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;2.  Indicate any significant disagreement in the WG about whether or not this&lt;br&gt;    document falls within the current charter.&lt;br&gt;    &lt;br&gt;    None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;3.  If anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme discontent,&lt;br&gt;    please summarize the areas of conflict in separate email messages to the&lt;br&gt;    responsible Area Director.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    (NOTE: This should be in a separate email because this completed&lt;br&gt;    questionnaire will be publicly available.)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    No.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;4.  For protocol documents, indicate whether the document adheres to the WG&lt;br&gt;    implementation policy (if any). Also, indicate whether there are existing&lt;br&gt;    (or planned) implementations and, if so, where they are listed.&lt;br&gt;    ([RFC 7942][3] recommends they be reported in the document itself).&lt;br&gt;   &lt;br&gt;    No implementation has been reported as specifically implementing this draft. &lt;br&gt;    However, Section 4.1 documents operational experience showing that many widely &lt;br&gt;    deployed CLAT implementations already exhibit the translation behavior specified &lt;br&gt;    by this document.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;## Additional Reviews&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;5.  Have reviews for the document happened in other IETF WGs or external&lt;br&gt;    organizations that you are aware of? If so, please provide references to&lt;br&gt;    those reviews (if any).&lt;br&gt;  &lt;br&gt;    The document interacts with IPv6 address synthesis and translation behavior &lt;br&gt;    relevant to 6man. Participants active in 6man reviewed and commented on the&lt;br&gt;    document during the v6ops discussion. No formal external review is required.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;6.  Describe the results of formal expert reviews (e.g., media type, URI) that&lt;br&gt;    the document has undergone. Also, indicate whether any of the required&lt;br&gt;    reviews are missing.&lt;br&gt;     &lt;br&gt;    No.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;7.  If the document contains a YANG module, does the document’s Datatracker page&lt;br&gt;    indicate that it has no errors and warnings?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Has a YANGDOCTOR review been done on a recent version, indicating that it is&lt;br&gt;    ready for publication?&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;    This document does not contain a YANG module.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Does the document use the various templates in [RFC 9907][4] (mainly, YANG&lt;br&gt;    module, Security, and IANA templates)?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    N/A.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;8.  Describe all reviews and automated checks performed to validate sections of&lt;br&gt;    the document written in a formal language, such as XML, JSON code,&lt;br&gt;    ABNF/RBNF/BNF rules, ASN.1, CBOR CDDL, etc.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    N/A.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;9.  Does the document describe any protocol elements that are intended for human&lt;br&gt;    interpretation and understanding? If so, does the document contain an&lt;br&gt;    Internationalization Considerations section that describes how those&lt;br&gt;    protocol elements are suitable for international use?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    No.    &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;## Document Shepherd Checks&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;10. Confirm that (in your opinion) this document is clearly written, complete,&lt;br&gt;    technically accurate, correctly designed, and ready to be handed off to the&lt;br&gt;    responsible Area Director.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Yes.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;11. Several IETF Areas have assembled&lt;br&gt;    [lists of common issues that their reviewers encounter][5]. Have such&lt;br&gt;    issues been identified and addressed? For which areas are subsequent&lt;br&gt;    reviews believed particularly important to happen?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    No additional specialized review has been identified as necessary. Operational &lt;br&gt;    and security considerations received WG review; normal IETF Last Call, directorate,&lt;br&gt;    and IESG review remain appropriate.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;12. What type of RFC publication is being requested&lt;br&gt;    ([Best Current Practice][6], [Proposed Standard, Internet Standard][7],&lt;br&gt;    [Informational, Experimental, or Historic][8])?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Proposed Standard. &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;    Why is this the appropriate type of RFC?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    The document normatively updates requirements in RFC 6052 and therefore&lt;br&gt;    Standards Track is appropriate. The draft itself reflects this intent. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;13. Will publication of this document change the status of any existing&lt;br&gt;    RFC(s)? If so, does the Datatracker status page for this document correctly&lt;br&gt;    list those RFCs on the Title page, in the Abstract, and in the Introduction&lt;br&gt;    of the document?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    No. Publication will not change the status of RFC6052; this document updates&lt;br&gt;    RFC6052. The update is identified in the document header and Abstract.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;14. If the document uses [BCP 14][9] key words, does the document follow the&lt;br&gt;    guidance in the&lt;br&gt;    [IESG Statement on Clarifying the Use of BCP 14 Key Words][10]?&lt;br&gt;    Is there any use of the BCP 14 key words that could be considered unclear&lt;br&gt;    or inappropriate? Please flag those.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Yes, it follows the guidance in [IESG Statement on Clarifying the Use of BCP 14 Key Words].&lt;br&gt;     &lt;br&gt;     &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;15. Confirm that reasonable efforts have been made to remind the WG (including&lt;br&gt;    the document authors, editors, and contributors) about the intellectual&lt;br&gt;    property rights (IPR) disclosure obligations described in [BCP 79][11].&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Please summarize any relevant discussion, including links to publicly&lt;br&gt;    available messages when applicable.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    All authors are aware of IPR responsibilities and have responded to the poll.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;16. Confirm that each author, editor, and contributor has shown their&lt;br&gt;    willingness to be listed as such. If the total number of authors and&lt;br&gt;    editors on the front page is greater than five, please provide a&lt;br&gt;    justification.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Yes, there are two authors on the front page.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;17. Please list any remaining I-D nits in the version of the document you&lt;br&gt;    reviewed that you feel are actual errors. Simply running the&lt;br&gt;    [idnits tool][12] is not enough; please review the&lt;br&gt;    [&quot;Content Guidelines&quot; on authors.ietf.org][13]. Idnits may display false&lt;br&gt;    positives; please flag those and please briefly explain as needed.&lt;br&gt;    (NOTE: No need to provide explanation for common false positives that are&lt;br&gt;    self-explanatory such as the existence of a newer version of referenced&lt;br&gt;    I-D)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Idnits found no errors/flaws and the remaining warnings concern intentional &lt;br&gt;    example/private addresses and the obsolete RFC5735 reference retained in the&lt;br&gt;    quoted OLD TEXT.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    There are a few spelling errors in the draft. These can be fixed during the IETF LC.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;### Document References&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;18. List any informative references that should be normative or vice-versa?&lt;br&gt;    If so, please list those.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    See the [IESG Statement on Normative and Informative References][14].&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;19. List any normative references that are not freely available to anyone.&lt;br&gt;    Does the community have sufficient access to review these references?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;20. List any normative downward references (see [RFC 3967][15] and&lt;br&gt;    [BCP 97][16]) that are not already listed in the [DOWNREF registry][17].&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;21. List any normative references to documents that are not ready to be&lt;br&gt;    submitted to the IESG for publication or are otherwise in an unclear&lt;br&gt;    state. For each, indicate the plan for their completion, if known.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;### IANA Considerations&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;22. Describe your review of the IANA considerations section, especially its&lt;br&gt;    consistency with the body of the document.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Confirm that all IANA requested actions are associated with the&lt;br&gt;    appropriate reservations in IANA registries.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Confirm that any referenced IANA registries have been clearly identified.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Confirm that each newly created IANA registry specifies its initial&lt;br&gt;    contents, allocation procedures, and a reasonable name (see&lt;br&gt;    [RFC 8126][18]).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    This document has no IANA actions.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;23. List any new IANA registries that require Designated Expert Review for&lt;br&gt;    future allocations (Expert Review, Specification Required). If any, please&lt;br&gt;    confirm that the document includes guidelines for Designated Experts. Are&lt;br&gt;    these instructions to the Designated Expert clear?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;[1]: https://www.ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/&lt;br&gt;[2]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc4858/&lt;br&gt;[3]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc7942/&lt;br&gt;[4]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc9907/&lt;br&gt;[5]: https://wiki.ietf.org/group/iesg/ExpertTopics&lt;br&gt;[6]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc2026/#section-5&lt;br&gt;[7]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc2026/#section-4.1&lt;br&gt;[8]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc2026/#section-4.2&lt;br&gt;[9]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/bcp14/&lt;br&gt;[10]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/statement-iesg-statement-on-clarifying-the-use-of-bcp-14-key-words/&lt;br&gt;[11]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/bcp79/&lt;br&gt;[12]: https://author-tools.ietf.org/idnits3/&lt;br&gt;[13]: https://authors.ietf.org/en/content-guidelines-overview&lt;br&gt;[14]: https://www.ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/statements/normative-informative-references/&lt;br&gt;[15]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc3967/&lt;br&gt;[16]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/bcp97/&lt;br&gt;[17]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/downref/&lt;br&gt;[18]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8126/&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</content>

If the total number of authors and&lt;br&gt;    editors on the front page is greater than five, please provide a&lt;br&gt;    justification.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Yes, there are two authors on the front page.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;17. Please list any remaining I-D nits in the version of the document you&lt;br&gt;    reviewed that you feel are actual errors. Simply running the&lt;br&gt;    [idnits tool][12] is not enough; please review the&lt;br&gt;    [&quot;Content Guidelines&quot; on authors.ietf.org][13]. Idnits may display false&lt;br&gt;    positives; please flag those and please briefly explain as needed.&lt;br&gt;    (NOTE: No need to provide explanation for common false positives that are&lt;br&gt;    self-explanatory such as the existence of a newer version of referenced&lt;br&gt;    I-D)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Idnits found no errors/flaws and the remaining warnings concern intentional &lt;br&gt;    example/private addresses and the obsolete RFC5735 reference retained in the&lt;br&gt;    quoted OLD TEXT.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    There are a few spelling errors in the draft. These can be fixed during the IETF LC.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;### Document References&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;18. List any informative references that should be normative or vice-versa?&lt;br&gt;    If so, please list those.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    See the [IESG Statement on Normative and Informative References][14].&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;19. List any normative references that are not freely available to anyone.&lt;br&gt;    Does the community have sufficient access to review these references?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;20. List any normative downward references (see [RFC 3967][15] and&lt;br&gt;    [BCP 97][16]) that are not already listed in the [DOWNREF registry][17].&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;21. List any normative references to documents that are not ready to be&lt;br&gt;    submitted to the IESG for publication or are otherwise in an unclear&lt;br&gt;    state. For each, indicate the plan for their completion, if known.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;### IANA Considerations&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;22. Describe your review of the IANA considerations section, especially its&lt;br&gt;    consistency with the body of the document.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Confirm that all IANA requested actions are associated with the&lt;br&gt;    appropriate reservations in IANA registries.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Confirm that any referenced IANA registries have been clearly identified.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Confirm that each newly created IANA registry specifies its initial&lt;br&gt;    contents, allocation procedures, and a reasonable name (see&lt;br&gt;    [RFC 8126][18]).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    This document has no IANA actions.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;23. List any new IANA registries that require Designated Expert Review for&lt;br&gt;    future allocations (Expert Review, Specification Required). If any, please&lt;br&gt;    confirm that the document includes guidelines for Designated Experts. Are&lt;br&gt;    these instructions to the Designated Expert clear?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;[1]: https://www.ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/&lt;br&gt;[2]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc4858/&lt;br&gt;[3]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc7942/&lt;br&gt;[4]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc9907/&lt;br&gt;[5]: https://wiki.ietf.org/group/iesg/ExpertTopics&lt;br&gt;[6]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc2026/#section-5&lt;br&gt;[7]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc2026/#section-4.1&lt;br&gt;[8]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc2026/#section-4.2&lt;br&gt;[9]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/bcp14/&lt;br&gt;[10]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/statement-iesg-statement-on-clarifying-the-use-of-bcp-14-key-words/&lt;br&gt;[11]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/bcp79/&lt;br&gt;[12]: https://author-tools.ietf.org/idnits3/&lt;br&gt;[13]: https://authors.ietf.org/en/content-guidelines-overview&lt;br&gt;[14]: https://www.ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/statements/normative-informative-references/&lt;br&gt;[15]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc3967/&lt;br&gt;[16]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/bcp97/&lt;br&gt;[17]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/downref/&lt;br&gt;[18]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8126/&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</content>

        <content type="html"># Document Shepherd Write-Up for Working Group Documents&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;*This version is dated 9 October 2026.*&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thank you for serving as a document shepherd. One of the responsibilities of&lt;br&gt;the shepherd is to consider and answer the questions in this write-up to&lt;br&gt;provide helpful context to Last Call and Internet Engineering Steering Group&lt;br&gt;([IESG][1]) reviewers. Your diligence in completing it is appreciated. The full&lt;br&gt;role of the shepherd is described in [RFC 4858][2]. At a minimum, you will need&lt;br&gt;the cooperation of the authors and editors to complete these checks.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Note that some numbered items contain multiple, related questions; please be&lt;br&gt;sure to answer all of them. It is highly appreciated to elaborate your answers&lt;br&gt;with more contextual information (as appropriate).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;When an item does not apply to the document, please indicate &quot;N/A&quot;.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;NOTE: Please remove the above text when posting your write-up.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;## Document History &amp; Implementations&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;1.  Have the Chairs confirmed Working Group (WG) consensus for this document?&lt;br&gt;    Did they indicate any issues to be called out with regard to that rough&lt;br&gt;    consensus? If so, what were they?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Please supply any additional information about the quality of the WG&lt;br&gt;    consensus from the Shepherd&#x27;s view (e.g., whether the consensus represents&lt;br&gt;    the strong concurrence of a few individuals, with others being silent, or&lt;br&gt;    did it reach a broad agreement).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    The WG reached agreement after active discussion and an extended WGLC. Multiple&lt;br&gt;    participants reviewed the document, and comments were addressed in subsequent &lt;br&gt;    revisions. No unresolved objections remain.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;2.  Indicate any significant disagreement in the WG about whether or not this&lt;br&gt;    document falls within the current charter.&lt;br&gt;    &lt;br&gt;    None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;3.  If anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme discontent,&lt;br&gt;    please summarize the areas of conflict in separate email messages to the&lt;br&gt;    responsible Area Director.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    (NOTE: This should be in a separate email because this completed&lt;br&gt;    questionnaire will be publicly available.)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    No.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;4.  For protocol documents, indicate whether the document adheres to the WG&lt;br&gt;    implementation policy (if any). Also, indicate whether there are existing&lt;br&gt;    (or planned) implementations and, if so, where they are listed.&lt;br&gt;    ([RFC 7942][3] recommends they be reported in the document itself).&lt;br&gt;   &lt;br&gt;    No implementation has been reported as specifically implementing this draft. &lt;br&gt;    However, Section 4.1 documents operational experience showing that many widely &lt;br&gt;    deployed CLAT implementations already exhibit the translation behavior specified &lt;br&gt;    by this document.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;## Additional Reviews&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;5.  Have reviews for the document happened in other IETF WGs or external&lt;br&gt;    organizations that you are aware of? If so, please provide references to&lt;br&gt;    those reviews (if any).&lt;br&gt;  &lt;br&gt;    The document interacts with IPv6 address synthesis and translation behavior &lt;br&gt;    relevant to 6man. Participants active in 6man reviewed and commented on the&lt;br&gt;    document during the v6ops discussion. No formal external review is required.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;6.  Describe the results of formal expert reviews (e.g., media type, URI) that&lt;br&gt;    the document has undergone. Also, indicate whether any of the required&lt;br&gt;    reviews are missing.&lt;br&gt;     &lt;br&gt;    No.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;7.  If the document contains a YANG module, does the document’s Datatracker page&lt;br&gt;    indicate that it has no errors and warnings?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Has a YANGDOCTOR review been done on a recent version, indicating that it is&lt;br&gt;    ready for publication?&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;    This document does not contain a YANG module.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Does the document use the various templates in [RFC 9907][4] (mainly, YANG&lt;br&gt;    module, Security, and IANA templates)?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    N/A.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;8.  Describe all reviews and automated checks performed to validate sections of&lt;br&gt;    the document written in a formal language, such as XML, JSON code,&lt;br&gt;    ABNF/RBNF/BNF rules, ASN.1, CBOR CDDL, etc.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    N/A.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;9.  Does the document describe any protocol elements that are intended for human&lt;br&gt;    interpretation and understanding? If so, does the document contain an&lt;br&gt;    Internationalization Considerations section that describes how those&lt;br&gt;    protocol elements are suitable for international use?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    No.    &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;## Document Shepherd Checks&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;10. Confirm that (in your opinion) this document is clearly written, complete,&lt;br&gt;    technically accurate, correctly designed, and ready to be handed off to the&lt;br&gt;    responsible Area Director.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Yes.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;11. Several IETF Areas have assembled&lt;br&gt;    [lists of common issues that their reviewers encounter][5]. Have such&lt;br&gt;    issues been identified and addressed? For which areas are subsequent&lt;br&gt;    reviews believed particularly important to happen?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    No additional specialized review has been identified as necessary. Operational &lt;br&gt;    and security considerations received WG review; normal IETF Last Call, directorate,&lt;br&gt;    and IESG review remain appropriate.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;12. What type of RFC publication is being requested&lt;br&gt;    ([Best Current Practice][6], [Proposed Standard, Internet Standard][7],&lt;br&gt;    [Informational, Experimental, or Historic][8])?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Proposed Standard. &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;    Why is this the appropriate type of RFC?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    The document normatively updates requirements in RFC 6052 and therefore&lt;br&gt;    Standards Track is appropriate. The draft itself reflects this intent. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;13. Will publication of this document change the status of any existing&lt;br&gt;    RFC(s)? If so, does the Datatracker status page for this document correctly&lt;br&gt;    list those RFCs on the Title page, in the Abstract, and in the Introduction&lt;br&gt;    of the document?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    No. Publication will not change the status of RFC6052; this document updates&lt;br&gt;    RFC6052. The update is identified in the document header and Abstract.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;14. If the document uses [BCP 14][9] key words, does the document follow the&lt;br&gt;    guidance in the&lt;br&gt;    [IESG Statement on Clarifying the Use of BCP 14 Key Words][10]?&lt;br&gt;    Is there any use of the BCP 14 key words that could be considered unclear&lt;br&gt;    or inappropriate? Please flag those.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;     &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;15. Confirm that reasonable efforts have been made to remind the WG (including&lt;br&gt;    the document authors, editors, and contributors) about the intellectual&lt;br&gt;    property rights (IPR) disclosure obligations described in [BCP 79][11].&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Please summarize any relevant discussion, including links to publicly&lt;br&gt;    available messages when applicable.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;16. Confirm that each author, editor, and contributor has shown their&lt;br&gt;    willingness to be listed as such. If the total number of authors and&lt;br&gt;    editors on the front page is greater than five, please provide a&lt;br&gt;    justification.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;17. Please list any remaining I-D nits in the version of the document you&lt;br&gt;    reviewed that you feel are actual errors. Simply running the&lt;br&gt;    [idnits tool][12] is not enough; please review the&lt;br&gt;    [&quot;Content Guidelines&quot; on authors.ietf.org][13]. Idnits may display false&lt;br&gt;    positives; please flag those and please briefly explain as needed.&lt;br&gt;    (NOTE: No need to provide explanation for common false positives that are&lt;br&gt;    self-explanatory such as the existence of a newer version of referenced&lt;br&gt;    I-D)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;### Document References&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;18. List any informative references that should be normative or vice-versa?&lt;br&gt;    If so, please list those.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    See the [IESG Statement on Normative and Informative References][14].&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;19. List any normative references that are not freely available to anyone.&lt;br&gt;    Does the community have sufficient access to review these references?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;20. List any normative downward references (see [RFC 3967][15] and&lt;br&gt;    [BCP 97][16]) that are not already listed in the [DOWNREF registry][17].&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;21. List any normative references to documents that are not ready to be&lt;br&gt;    submitted to the IESG for publication or are otherwise in an unclear&lt;br&gt;    state. For each, indicate the plan for their completion, if known.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;### IANA Considerations&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;22. Describe your review of the IANA considerations section, especially its&lt;br&gt;    consistency with the body of the document.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Confirm that all IANA requested actions are associated with the&lt;br&gt;    appropriate reservations in IANA registries.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Confirm that any referenced IANA registries have been clearly identified.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;    Confirm that each newly created IANA registry specifies its initial&lt;br&gt;    contents, allocation procedures, and a reasonable name (see&lt;br&gt;    [RFC 8126][18]).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;23. List any new IANA registries that require Designated Expert Review for&lt;br&gt;    future allocations (Expert Review, Specification Required). If any, please&lt;br&gt;    confirm that the document includes guidelines for Designated Experts.

	  <abstract>   This document suggests that when a source IPv6 address of an ICMPv6
   message can not be translated to an IPv4 address, and the protocol
   translator does not have any public IPv4 addresses available to
   source the translated packet from, the translator uses the dummy IPv4
   address (192.0.0.8) to translate the IPv6 source address.  This
   document updates RFC6791, Stateless Source Address Mapping for ICMPv6
   Packets, and RFC7915, IP/ICMP Translation Algorithm, by proposing to
   utilize the ICMP extension for Node Identification (draft-ietf-
   intarea-extended-icmp-nodeid) to carry the original IPv6 source
   address of ICMPv6 messages.

        <content type="html"># Document Shepherd Write-Up for draft-ietf-v6ops-ipv6-only&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;## Document History&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;1.	Have the Chairs confirmed Working Group (WG) consensus for this document? Did they indicate any issues to be called out with regard to that rough consensus? If so, what were they?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	The document had very lively discussion and support since the earlier versions, probably over the average.&lt;br&gt;	During the WG Last Call, only a few issues needed to be addressed and were addressed and the chairs confirmed consensus.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;2.	Indicate any significant disagreement in the WG about whether or not this document falls within the current charter.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	No remarkable controversy was raised.&lt;br&gt;	&lt;br&gt;	There is one capitalization issue -- e.g. &#x27;IPv6-Only vs. IPv6-only&#x27; -- that got no &lt;br&gt;	concluding consensus as most WG members had no strong opinions except for being&lt;br&gt;	consistent across all these composite terms.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;3.	If anyone threatened an appeal or otherwise indicated extreme discontent, please summarize the areas of conflict in separate email messages to the responsible Area Director&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	No discontent has been indicated, so difficult to believe that anyone could consider an appeal.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;4.	For protocol documents, indicate whether the document adheres to the WG implementation policy (if any). &lt;br&gt;	Also, indicate whether there are existing (or planned) implementations and, if so, where they are listed. ([RFC 7942][3] recommends they be reported in the document itself).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	It is an Informational document, and contains no protocol that could be implemented.&lt;br&gt;	The terminology defined in the document though has seen adoption by other WG documents.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;## Additional Reviews&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;5.	Have reviews for the document happened in other IETF WGs or external organizations that you are aware of? If so, please provide references to those reviews (if any).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	As the terminology defined in the document influences future documents in 6man,&lt;br&gt;	its draft has been shared on the 6man list after WGLC. Minor editorial feedback has been incorporated.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;6.	Describe the results of formal expert reviews (e.g., media type, URI) that the document has undergone. Also, indicate whether any of the required reviews are missing.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	N/A&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;7.	If the document contains a YANG module, does the document’s Datatracker page indicate that it has no errors and warnings?&lt;br&gt;    Has a YANGDOCTOR review been done on a recent version, indicating that it is ready for publication?&lt;br&gt;    Does the document use the various templates in [RFC 9907][4] (mainly, YANG module, Security, and IANA templates)?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	N/A&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;8.	Describe all reviews and automated checks performed to validate sections of the document written in a formal language, such as XML, JSON code, ABNF/RBNF/BNF rules, ASN.1, CBOR CDDL, etc.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	N/A&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;9.	Does the document describe any protocol elements that are intended for human interpretation and understanding? If so, does the document contain an Internationalization Considerations section that describes how those protocol elements are suitable for international use?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	N/A&lt;br&gt;	&lt;br&gt;## Document Shepherd Checks&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;10.	Confirm that (in your opinion) this document is clearly written, complete, technically accurate, correctly designed, and ready to be handed off to the responsible Area Director.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	I believe it is needed and useful.&lt;br&gt;	It is clearly written. &lt;br&gt;	It has a good structure and is easy to read.&lt;br&gt;	It is ready to be handed to the responsible AD.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;11.	Several IETF Areas have assembled [lists of common issues that their reviewers encounter][5]. &lt;br&gt;    Have such issues been identified and addressed? For which areas are subsequent reviews believed particularly important to happen?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	I don&#x27;t think is the case for this document.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;12.	What type of RFC publication is being requested ([Best Current Practice][6], [Proposed Standard, Internet Standard][7], [Informational, Experimental, or Historic][8])?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	Informational: The document defines terminology.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;13.	Will publication of this document change the status of any existing RFC(s)? If so, does the Datatracker status page for this document correctly list those RFCs on the Title page, in the Abstract, and in the Introduction of the document?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	No.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;14.	If the document uses BCP 14 key words [9], does the document follow the guidance in the [IESG Statement on Clarifying the Use of BCP 14 Key Words][10]?&lt;br&gt;Is there any use of the BCP 14 key words that could be considered unclear or inappropriate? Please flag those.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	No.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;15.	Confirm that reasonable efforts have been made to remind the WG (including the document authors, editors, and contributors) about the intellectual property rights (IPR) disclosure obligations described in [BCP 79][11].&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	Yes.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;16.	Confirm that each author, editor, and contributor has shown their willingness to be listed as such. If the total number of authors and editors on the front page is greater than five, please provide a justification.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	Yes.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;17.	Please list any remaining I-D nits in the version of the document you reviewed that you feel are actual errors. Simply running the [idnits tool][12] is not enough; please review the [&quot;Content Guidelines&quot; on authors.ietf.org][13]. Idnits may display false positives; please flag those and please briefly explain as needed.&lt;br&gt;    (NOTE: No need to provide explanation for common false positives that are self-explanatory such as the existence of a newer version of referenced I-D)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	It seems ok.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;### Document References&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;18.	List any informative references that should be normative or vice-versa? If so, please list those.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	No, all them seem rightly classified to me.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;19.	List any normative references that are not freely available to anyone. Does the community have sufficient access to review these references?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;20.	List any normative downward references (see [RFC 3967][15] and [BCP 97][16]) that are not already listed in the [DOWNREF registry][17].&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;21.	List any normative references to documents that are not ready to be submitted to the IESG for publication or are otherwise in an unclear state. For each, indicate the plan for their completion, if known.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;### IANA Considerations&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;22.	Describe your review of the IANA considerations section, especially its consistency with the body of the document.&lt;br&gt;    Confirm that all IANA requested actions are associated with the appropriate reservations in IANA registries.&lt;br&gt;    Confirm that any referenced IANA registries have been clearly identified.&lt;br&gt;    Confirm that each newly created IANA registry specifies its initial contents, allocation procedures, and a reasonable name (see [RFC 8126][18]).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	There are no IANA considerations.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;23.	List any new IANA registries that require Designated Expert Review for future allocations (Expert Review, Specification Required). If any, please confirm that the document includes guidelines for Designated Experts. Are these instructions to the Designated Expert clear?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;	None.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;[1]: https://www.ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/ &lt;br&gt;[2]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4858.html &lt;br&gt;[3]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7942.html &lt;br&gt;[4]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9907.html&lt;br&gt;[5]: https://wiki.ietf.org/group/iesg/ExpertTopics &lt;br&gt;[6]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2026.html#section-5 &lt;br&gt;[7]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2026.html#section-4.1 &lt;br&gt;[8]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2026.html#section-4.2 &lt;br&gt;[9]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/bcp14/ &lt;br&gt;[10]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/statement-iesg-statement-on-clarifying-the-use-of-bcp-14-key-words/&lt;br&gt;[11]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/bcp79 &lt;br&gt;[12]: https://author-tools.ietf.org/idnits3/ &lt;br&gt;[13]: https://authors.ietf.org/en/content-guidelines-overview &lt;br&gt;[14]: https://www.ietf.org/about/groups/iesg/statements/normative-informative-references/&lt;br&gt;[15]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3967.html &lt;br&gt;[16]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/bcp97 &lt;br&gt;[17]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/downref/ &lt;br&gt;[18]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8126.html </content>
