Title
Benchmarking stateless NAT64 implementations with a standard tester
Abstract
RFC 5180, the IPv6 update of RFC 2544, declared IPv6 transition technologies out of its scope. RFC 8219 defined a benchmarking methodology for IPv6 transition technologies including stateless NAT64 (more properly called SIIT) in the category of single translation solutions. Whereas several research papers have dealt with the performance of different stateful NAT64 implementations, none of them used RFC 8219 compliant measurements or addressed stateless NAT64 implementations. In this paper, we show, how stateless NAT64 implementations can be benchmarked carrying out the most important tests recommended by RFC 8219 without a special purpose NAT64 Tester, using simply an RFC 2544/RFC 5180 compliant legacy Tester. We carry out benchmarking measurements to examine the performance of three free software NAT64 implementations, namely: Jool, TAYGA and map646. All the details of our measurements are disclosed and their results are presented in the paper.
