I first tested NAT64 back in 2011. I have not looked at any other
transition technology since then, to be honest.

I decided to go with NAT64 over SIIT (SIIT is, really, stateless NAT64)
because SIIT's 1:1 IPv6:IPv4 address mapping seemed administratively
laborious. Stateful NAT64 scales better from that perspective.

I'm not sure if the SIIT spec. has changed any since 2011. I should
probably look, but wouldn't expect it to be different given its
fundamental design principals.

Mark.
