DI-206 ISDN Remote Router

Dynamic NAPT - One to one mapping of UDP/TCP port numbers. The NAPT map table will age. This option allows many hosts to use a single, globally unique IP address, and thus will only be used on outbound packets.

State – Enables or disables this NAT configuration.

NAT IP Pool Configuration Screen

Now you must select, enter, and configure the NAT IP Pool from the NAT

Configuration sub-menu, shown below.

Dynamic NAT

This screen (below) is how the NAT IP Pool appears, if Dynamic NAT was chosen for the Translation Mode parameter. Each entry, in this configuration, can be used to map multiple, contiguous global addresses and local addresses to each other.

The parameters are described below:

Global IP – An IP Address that is globally unique and valid on the Internet. It is the base, global address for the global addresses that will be recognized by the interface in the Global Interface parameter.

Range – This is the range of contiguous, global addresses above (and including) the base Global IP.

Local IP – An IP Address that is only used in the stub domain since it is not unique. It is the base, local address for the local addresses that will be recognized by the interface in the Local Interface parameter.

Range – This is the range of contiguous local addresses above (and including) the base Local IP.

State – This toggles enable/disable for this NAT entry.
