Understanding Netopia NAT Behavior C-7

Conﬁguration

NAT is enabled by default with the SmartStart conﬁguration utility. You can toggle Enable Address Translation to No or Yes in the Connection Proﬁle screen in System Conﬁguration under the IP Proﬁle Parameters section. NAT is enabled on a per-proﬁle basis, so it is possible to have any combination of NAT and non-NAT proﬁles. An example of enabling NAT is as follows:

IP Profile Parameters

Remote IP Address:	127.0.0.2
Remote IP Mask:	255.255.255.0
Address Translation Enabled:	Yes
Filter Set...
Remove Filter Set
Receive RIP:	No

Enter the remote IP network's IP address (form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx decimal).

Configure IP requirements for a remote network connection here.

Toggling Address Translation Enabled to Yes enables the Netopia R7200 to send out an all-zeros IPCP address that requests an IP to be assigned to the Netopia R7200’s WAN interface. Note that the remote IP address is 127.0.0.2, which should also be the default gateway under IP Setup in System Conﬁguration. This is done for proﬁle matching purposes and because the IP address of the router the Netopia R7200 is dialing is not always known.

As mentioned earlier in this appendix, NAT works well for IP sessions originated on the Netopia R7200’s LAN interface destined for the Internet without any additional conﬁguration. For incoming IP connections from the Internet to a host on the Netopia R7200’s LAN interface, exported services need to be used.

Exported services are conﬁgured under IP Setup in System Conﬁguration. This is where a particular type of TCP or UDP service originating from the Internet is redirected to a host on the Netopia R7200’s LAN interface. An example of this screen follows:
