Introduction 

MAP-T (RFC 7599) is a stateless IPv4/IPv6 transition mechanism that enables IPv4 services over an IPv6-only network using algorithmic translation.

Translation happens at:

  •    MAP Customer Edge (CE): A device functioning as a Customer Edge
                           router in a MAP deployment.  A typical MAP CE
                           adopting MAP Rules will serve a residential
                           site with one WAN-side IPv6-addressed
                           interface and one or more LAN-side interfaces
                           addressed using private IPv4 addressing.

   MAP Border Relay (BR):  A MAP-enabled router managed by the service
                           provider at the edge of a MAP domain.  A BR
                           has at least an IPv6-enabled interface and an
                           IPv4 interface connected to the native IPv4
                           network.  A MAP BR may also be referred to as
                           simply a "BR" within the context of MAP.

MAP-T High-Level Architecture


MAPT Configuration

Customer Edge: Enable/Disable MAPT feature with below distro's from build

DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " feature_mapt"
DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " nat46"

Border Relay: Setup done in ubuntu machine ( linux kernel 5.15 )
Installation
  1. sudo apt-get install isc-dhcp-server
  2. Open file /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf and update as below

    ddns-update-style none;
    default-lease-time 3600;
    max-lease-time 7200;
    authoritative;
    option custom-upstream-rate code 242 = unsigned integer 32;
    option custom-downstream-rate code 243 = unsigned integer 32;

    option domain-name "hsd.pa.crnrstn.comcast.net" ;

    subnet 10.42.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
        option routers 10.42.0.10;
        option broadcast-address 10.42.0.255;
        option domain-name-servers 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8;
        range 10.42.0.3 10.42.0.254;

    }

  3. Open file /etc/radvd.conf

    interface eth1 {
        AdvSendAdvert on;
        AdvManagedFlag on;
        AdvOtherConfigFlag on;

        prefix 2001:558:6013:100::/64 {
            AdvOnLink on;
            AdvAutonomous on;
        };

    };

  4. Open file  /etc/dhcp/dhcpd6.conf and update as below 

    ddns-update-style none;
    default-lease-time 3600;
    max-lease-time 7200;
    option dhcp-renewal-time 1800;
    option dhcp-rebinding-time 2880;
    option client-class-information code 97 = string;
    authoritative;
    option dhcp6.map-option code 95 = string;
    subnet6 2001:558:6013:0100::/64 {
        range6 2001:558:6013:0100::1000 2001:558:6013:0100::1fff;
        prefix6 2001:558:6013:0100:: 2001:558:6013:fe00:: /56;
        option dhcp6.map-option 00:59:00:16:00:08:18:c0:a8:14:00:30:20:01:05:58:60:13:00:5d:00:04:08:08:00:00:00:5b:00:09:40:00:64:ff:9b:00:00:00:00;
        option dhcp6.name-servers
        2001:4860:4860::8888,
        2001:4860:4860::8844;
    }

  5. Once all changes are done, restart the dhcpd and radvd service.
    sudo systemctl restart isc-dhcp-server
    sudo systemctl restart isc-dhcp-server6
    sudo systemctl restart radvd
