I'm wondering what are you referring to when you mention NAT in the context of IPv6. I thought there is no widely adopted implementation.

- adriancr 3y agoYou can easily enable IPv6 masquerading on openwrt and linux in general: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/ipv6/ipv6.nat6 https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/ipv6/ipv6.nat6 This has been available for a long time. You can also do static NAT and anything that you were used to on IPv4.
- craftkiller 2y agoNothing is preventing you from doing NAT in IPv6. There is the Unique Local Address[0] range which is analogous to the RFC-1918 addresses from IPv4. That being said, there are very few reasons to do this in IPv6 (the only that comes to my mind is running virtual machines on a laptop connected via wifi).
