Yes, you can get rid of the logging by statically allocating ranges of
port numbers to a particular customer.

And, that was the original concern.

What I was referring to, though, was the programmatic state tracking of
the {external IP, external port}-{internal IP, internal port} mappings.

OK.

  You can't eliminate that unless the CPE also knows what internal port
range it's mapped to so that it restricts what range it uses.  If you
can do that, you can get rid of the programmatic state tracking entirely
and just use static translations for TCP and UDP which, while nice, is
impractical.  You're about 95% of the way to LW4o6 or MAP at that point.

Interesting. Then, if you can LW4o6 or MAP, you are about 95% of the
way to E2ENAT with complete end to end transparency using IPv4 only,
which means we don't need IPv6 with 4to6 NAT lacking the transparency.
