IPv6 network to an IPv4 world
Posted by lters on Mon 3 Jan 2011 at 17:52
I am looking for ways to take a IPv4 debian system that is acting as a FW, GW, [1] etc to the world via multiple ISPs.
And allow us to setup a full IPv6 network behind it. When traffic needs to be converted back to IPv4, and I have public IPv4 and IPv6 space, is there a need for NAT64 or something like it?

If you have a ipv6 solution going, how to get back to the rest of the world without using a some other carrier?
If I have a public ip on v4 and v6, why would I want to use a broker?

Seems like some sort of nat from ipv6 to ipv4 and some sort of fancy DNS service is needed to handle the "on the fly" conversion...

NAT64 appears to be a compilable option for lenny.

Thanks.
