Dear folks in 6man and INT-area, V6ops issued a WGLC on this draft: Using Dummy IPv4 Address and Node Identification Extensions for IP/ICMP translators (XLATs) https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-v6ops-icmpext-xlat-v6only-source/
We believe it's relevant to you as ICMP is maintained by your WGs. We invite you to review and comment in the v6ops mailing list. Thank you very much. Nick & XiPeng, v6ops co-chairs -----Original Message----- From: Nick Buraglio via Datatracker <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, 7 October 2025 22:56 To: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: WG Last Call: draft-ietf-v6ops-icmpext-xlat-v6only-source-00 (Ends 2025-10-28) Subject: WG Last Call: draft-ietf-v6ops-icmpext-xlat-v6only-source-00 (Ends 2025-10-28) This message starts a 3-week WG Last Call for this document. Abstract: This document suggests that when a source IPv6 address of an ICMPv6 message can not be translated to an IPv4 address, the protocol translators use the dummy IPv4 address (192.0.0.8) to translate the IPv6 source address, and utilize the ICMP extension for Node Identification (draft-ietf-intarea-extended-icmp-nodeid) to carry the original IPv6 source address of ICMPv6 messages.

Objections should be motivated and suggestions to resolve them are highly appreciated.
