Multiple Network Address Translation 11-31

Select ADD NAT PUBLIC RANGE and press Return. You are returned to the Network Address Translation screen.

Next, select Show/Change Map List and choose Easy-PAT List. Select Add Map. The Add NAT Map screen appears. (Now the name Easy-PAT List is a misnomer since it has a static map included in its list.) Enter in 192.168.1.1 for the First Private Address and 192.168.1.5 for the Last Private Address.

Add NAT Map ("Easy-PAT List")

First Private Address:

192.168.1.1

Last Private Address:

192.168.1.5

Use NAT Public Range...

ADD NAT MAP

CANCEL

Select Use NAT Public Range and from the pop-up menu choose Static Range. Select ADD NAT MAP and press Return.

This will statically map the first five public IP addresses to the first five corresponding private IP addresses and will map 206.1.1.6 to the remaining private IP addresses using PAT.

Notes on the example

The Easy-Map List and the Easy-PAT List are attached to any new Connection Profile by default. If you want to use this NAT configuration on a previously defined Connection Profile then you need to bind the Map List to the profile. You do this through either the NAT Associations screen or the profile’s configuration screens.

The PAT part of this example setup will allow any user on the Netopia Router's LAN with an IP address in the range of 192.168.1.6 through 192.168.1.254 to initiate traffic flow to the outside world (for example, the Internet). No one on the Internet would be able to initiate a conversation with them.

The Static mapping part of this example will allow any of the machines in the range of addresses from 192.168.1.1 through 192.168.1.5 to communicate with the outside world as if they were at the addresses

206.1.1.1through 206.1.1.5, respectively. It also allows any machine on the Internet to access any service (port) on any of these five machines.

You may decide this poses a security risk. You may decide that anyone can have complete access to your FTP server, but not to your router, and only limited access to the desired services (ports) on the Web and Mail servers.
