Without Nat, Won't My Network Be Less Secure?

Answer»

TRANSLATING addresses does not provide any security benefits. In MANY CASES NATs require an outgoing connection to be present before they will allow an incoming connection to succeed. This 'stateful packet filtering' can be enabled for IPV6 in the absence of any address translation. The security properties of IPv6 are no different than those of IPv4.
