IPNL: A NAT-extended internet architecture

Abstract
This paper presents and analyzes IPNL for IP Next Layer, a NAT-extended
Internet protocol architecture designed to scalably solve the address
depletion problem of IPv4. A NAT-extended architecture is one where
only hosts and NAT boxes are modified. IPv4 routers and support protocols
remain untouched. IPNL attempts to maintain all of the original characteristics
of IPv4, most notably address prefix location independence. IPNL
provides true site isolation no renumbering, and allows sites to
be multi-homed without polluting the default-free routing zone with
per-site prefixes. We discuss IPNL's architectural benefits and drawbacks,
and show that it comes acceptably close to achieving its goals.
