ServerIron ADX NAT64 Configuration Guide 55
53-1002444-02
High availability for NAT46
4
DRAFT: BROCADE CONFIDENTIAL
The <prefix/subnet> variable specifies the NAT46 IPv4 prefix used by the ServerIron ADX when it
operates as a NAT46 gateway.
The prefetch option directs the ServerIron ADX to prefetch IPv4 to IPv6 mappings from DNS.
NOTE
The nat64 dns-dynamic-learning command must be configured for the prefetch option to take effect.
If dynamic learning is not configured, an error message is displayed.
Configuring NAT46 prefetched dynamic learning
Use the nat64 dns-dynamic-learning command to configure a ServerIron ADX to perform dynamic
learning of IPv4 to IPv6 mappings through DNS.
Enter a command such as the following:
ServerIron ADX(config)# nat64 dns-dynamic-learning
Syntax: [no] nat64 dns-dynamic-learning
With this command configured, a ServerIron ADX will discover IPv6 to IPv4 mappings through DNS
whenever the DNS server receives a new IPv4 destination or IPv6 source.
Once this command is configured, you can configure a ServerIron ADX to prefetch mappings for
IPv4 prefixes using the nat64 ipv4-prefix <prefix/subnet> prefetch command. For more
information, refer to “Configuring NAT46 IPv4 prefixes with prefetched dynamic learning” on
page 54.
Use the clear nat64 dns-dynamic-mapping command to clear all entries created using dynamic
learning. For more information, refer to “Clearing dynamic IPv6-IPv4 mappings” on page 57.
Configuring NAT46 hold-off intervals for DNS discoveries
In advanced configurations, you can configure hold-off intervals for DNS discoveries. By default, a
DNS discovery (or refresh) fails if three retries time out or if the DNS64 server returns an error. In
this situation, the NAT46 gateway can still receive traffic intended for IPv6 resources.
Use the nat64 dns-fail-holdoff command to direct the ServerIron ADX to wait a specified period of
time (in seconds) before retrying a request to the DNS64 server. In the following example, the
hold-off interval is set to 300 seconds:
ServerIron ADX(config)# nat64 dns-fail-holdoff 300
Syntax: [no] nat64 dns-fail-holdoff <holdoff-interval>
The <holdoff-interval> variable is configured in seconds. Configurable values from 10 through
3600 seconds. The default value is 180 seconds.
High availability for NAT46
The only high availability (HA) mode currently supported with the NAT46 feature is Active-Active HA.
Support for this mode is essentially the same as for the IPv6 client to IPv6 resource configuration
as described in “High availability for NAT64” on page 15 with the following differences:
