Monitoring NAT The NAT configuration is displayed when viewing the remote site configuration using the show vc command. The Network Address Translation field should indicate “enabled”. The NAT Default Address field will contain 0.0.0.0 if the option is disabled or a valid workstation IP address on the local LAN if it is enabled. The static port definitions are appended to the display only when configured.

DHCPDynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is designed to provide a centralized approach for configuration of IP addresses and parameters.
When a workstation is configured for automatic assignment of IP addresses, it broadcasts a request out on the LAN. The DHCP Server responds with an IP address for the workstation, the domain name, and the IP addresses of the default router, two DNS Servers, and two WINS Servers.
The assignment of an IP address to the workstation is for a specified period of time, referred to as the lease period. Before the lease is set to expire, the workstation will send a request to the server to extend the lease period. The server maintains a list of assigned IP addresses and the duration period of the leases. When a lease expires, the IP address can be reassigned to another workstation.
The OfficeConnect Remote 812 can be configured to support up to 40 workstations on the local LAN. In addition, the OfficeConnect Remote 812 can be configured to be a DHCP Relay. When enabled, the Relay will process the broadcast request from the local workstation and send it to one or two remote DHCP servers. The response from the remote DHCP servers is processed and forwarded to the local workstation.
