There is alot of ways RFID can and cannot be implemented into Ipv6, you CAN use RFID if you are a manufacturer of a piece of hardware but you cannot hijack ipv6 packets, so even if you set up a man in the middle attack to capture any traffic, its worthless because:

1. the packets have end to end encryption
2. based on the encryption, you have no idea what are the tags on the RFID chips.
3. ipv6 has some type of authentication(i dont know exactly what) that lets you know that the packets come from the actual source and not someone acting as the source i.e. IP spoofing.

You can use this as a means of authorizing purchases and whatnot, your imagination is the limit.

and yes NAT will still work but they will eventually be phased out.

Wow! Thank you, Oversight! I appreciate your informing me more completely about RFID. This gives me more information about how it all integrates with IPV6/RSIP. *me going to ground and doing more investigation* *PERK* perhaps, if I am able to get this together, I will have a nice preso for my local 2600...
