NAT is cancer!
NAT in IPv6 is spreading cancer cells to all the organs of a new, healthy

Hi Douglas,

Hate on it all you want, 1:many NAT renders my internal network not
just inaccessible from the Internet but inaddressible as well. That's
a feature not a bug. It's a feature I want for some of my subnets.
When I get around to deploying IPv6 on those subnets it's a feature I
will use. You don't have to like it. It's not your network.

Regards,
Bill Herrin
