It was called NAT-PT. Note the *was* in that short sentence. The
mechanism has been deprecated for the very obvious reason that it breaks
a lot of protocols and generates more problems than that it solves.

If you could explain exactly what kind of problem you have then I am
sure we can come up with a better alternative to your problem.
