Research on IPV4/IPV6 translation gateway based on NAT-PT technology

Abstract

The paper discusses how to design and realize the translation gateway based on NAT-PT technology in detail. At the beginning the paper compares various current transition technologies and points out NAT-PT technology is a more feasible project to carry out the transition from IPv4 network to IPv6 network on the present stage. And then it presents an overall design of NAT-PT system and realizes it. Finally, translation gateway is tested in the lab environment, including the test of receiving and sending data messages, and the test of ping. Translation gateway works very well.
