NAT66(NPTv6)
############
:abbr:`NPTv6 (IPv6-to-IPv6 Network Prefix Translation)` is an address translation technology based
on IPv6 networks, used to convert an IPv6 address prefix in an IPv6 message into another IPv6
address prefix. We call this address translation method NAT66. Devices that support the NAT66
function are called NAT66 devices, which can provide NAT66 source and destination address
translation functions.

:abbr:`SNPTv6 (Source IPv6-to-IPv6 Network Prefix Translation)` The conversion
function is mainly used in the following scenarios:
* A single internal network and external network. Use the NAT66 device to connect a single internal
network and public network, and the hosts in the internal network use IPv6 address prefixes that
only support routing within the local range. When a host in the internal network accesses the
external network, the source IPv6 address prefix in the message will be converted into a
global unicast IPv6 address prefix by the NAT66 device.
* Redundancy and load sharing. There are multiple NAT66 devices at the edge of an IPv6 network
to another IPv6 network. The path through the NAT66 device to another IPv6 network forms an
equivalent route, and traffic can be load-shared on these NAT66 devices. In this case, you
can configure the same source address translation rules on these NAT66 devices, so that any
NAT66 device can handle IPv6 traffic between different sites.
* Multi-homed. In a multi-homed network environment, the NAT66 device connects to an
internal network and simultaneously connects to different external networks. Address
translation can be configured on each external network side interface of the NAT66
device to convert the same internal network address into different external network
addresses, and realize the mapping of the same internal address to multiple external addresses.

The :abbr:`DNPTv6 (Destination IPv6-to-IPv6 Network Prefix Translation)` destination address translation
function is used in scenarios where the server in the internal network provides services to the external
network, such as providing Web services or FTP services to the external network. By configuring the mapping
relationship between the internal server address and the external network address on the external network
side interface of the NAT66 device, external network users can access the internal network server through
the designated external network address.
