Option 1:
+---------------+
|BIH(FTP sever) |----------NAT64-------FTP Client
+---------------+
Option 2:
+---------------+
|BIH(FTP sever) |--------------FTP Client
+---------------+
In the case of Option 1, it can't work since NAT64 couldn't support
IPv4 initiated session
I agree it would fail with a passive-mode transfer. But it should
work with an active-mode transfer.
In an active-mode transfer, IPv4 client needs initiate the TCP
connection to a port on the FTP sever in advance. Afterwards, FTP
server connects back to the client.
I'm not sure how could NAT64 support the first step (i.e. IPv4
initiated TCP connection)?
Many thanks
Gang
