Configuring NAT
They provide a measure of security for your LAN by enabling you to assign private IP addresses and then have these and the source port numbers swapped out before your computers access the Internet.
The type of NAT function described above is called network address port translation (NAPT). You can use other types, called flavors, of NAT for other purposes; for example, providing outside access to your LAN or translating multiple private addresses to multiple public addresses. Section 0 “Adding NAT rules” gives a description of each of the flavors.
