Explicit Address Mappings for Stateless IP/ICMP Translation
Overview
RFC 7757, “Explicit Address Mappings for Stateless IP/ICMP Translation”, is an Internet Standard document published in February 2016 by T. Anderson, A. Leiva Popper. It updates RFC 6145. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document extends the Stateless IP/ICMP Translation Algorithm (SIIT) with an Explicit Address Mapping (EAM) algorithm and formally updates RFC 6145. The EAM algorithm facilitates stateless IP/ICMP translation between arbitrary (non-IPv4-translatable) IPv6 endpoints and IPv4.
What “Internet Standard” means
A mature, widely-implemented specification that has completed the full IETF standards process — the highest maturity level on the standards track.
