11. NAT Configuration

This chapter describes the steps required to configure Network Address Translation (NAT).

NAT multiplexes traffic from the internal network and presents it to the Internet as if it is from a single source that has only one IP address.

The NAT Local Server may be configured with a range of both TCP and UDP ports, which benefits applications including video conferencing and multi-user games.

Setting up IP networks without NAT may be complex—each requires an IP address, subnet mask, a DNS address and a default router.

NAT reduces this complexity by:

Modifying IP addresses and checksum without affecting traffic Automatic network configuration when using DHCP Packet-level filtering and routing

Traffic logging

NOTE If you enter an element of NAT information incorrectly, the network connection will not function and there may be no indication of what is wrong.
