Firewalls merely constrict it. Not that I advocate against the use of firewalls; in fact, I think I'm agreeing with you, and extending the argument a little further, that we should move from NAT to firewalls, then from stateful firewalls to secure hosts and network security appliances.

I would be fine with that. However, in terms of the art of the possible with the tools available today, IPv6 has no need of NAT, but, firewalls cannot yet be safely removed from the equation. Owen
