I've spent ages looking for any books or datasheets about the performance of your CGNAT solution and found nothing at all. It's quite a wise solution to hide your documentation from potential clients...
Can't wait for the 2030s when all the world is online, people have even more iot devices and yet for some damn reason we are still not using IPv6 and instead we have triple NAT. Everything is "connected" but you can barely send an email.
CGNAT is absolutely disgusting technology. It locks people into one way connectivity. Only Outbound from client to server, unless a connection has already been established. It breaks "end to end" connectivity, a principle that's absolutely foundational to the design of the internet. For inbound connections, ports on a CGNAT router need to be opened to let a connection in. You can't even see your own security camera when stuck behind a CGNAT service. The solution is IPV6, but at the moment - our mobile operators don't support ipv6 on their networks. And our home connections don't either. So we are essentially stuck in a situation where everything is CGNAT, and IPV6 is ignored. Completely breaking end to end connectivity.
All of the CEOs, managers and admins who agreed to implementing carrier grade NAT should be forced to share one body their entire lives.

Same mate.
Did you end up finding any decent open documentation/datasheets regarding regarding this?

v6 has taken off? even in 2024 most countries do not provide any v6 in the entire world
Any books on CGNAT?

What a sad story.
