- IPv6 NAT-PT translates addresses both ways
- IPv6 NAT-PT requires IPv6 NAT /96 prefix
- IPv6 NAT-PT could be configured using static bi-directional entries
- IPv6 NAT-PT dynamic translations use IPv4 address pool to map many IPv6 addresses to a small group of IPv4 addresses
- IPv6 NAT-PT allows IPv4 address mapping inside IPv6 NAT prefix

Building an IPv6 router with GNU/Linux
This step-by-step guide is intended to help the novice gain experience with IPv6 by setting up an Linux IPv6 router. It can help more experienced IPv6 users, as it shows how quick and easy building an IPv6 router that will perform advanced functions, like stateful packet translations between IPv4/IPv6 or acting as a DNS proxy, really is. In this paper I will be using Fedora Core 4 as it is an easy to use distribution, perfectly suitable for building an IPv6 router, but I will keep all my examples as generic as possible, so that you should be able to replicate them on almost any modern Linux distribution. This paper is not a guide to IPv6. You should know the basics of the protocol itself. If you don't there are hundreds of excellent papers on the Internet explaining the protocol and I don't indent to write Yet Another Guide About What's New In IPv6 (YAGAWNIv6 anyone ?). Enough said. Lets jump to what's important: building our router.
