Prestige 201 ISDN Access Router

Your Prestige accomplishes this address sharing by translating the internal LAN IP addresses to a single address that is globally unique on the Internet. For more information on IP address translation, refer to RFC 1631, The IP Network Address Translator (NAT) .

3.5.1 Advantages of SUA

In summary:

•SUA is a cost-effective solution for small offices with less than 20 hosts to access the Internet or other remote TCP/IP networks.

•SUA supports servers to be accessible to the outside world.

•SUA can provide firewall protection if you do not specify a server. All incoming inquiries will be filtered out by your Prestige.

•UDP and TCP packets can be routed. In addition, partial ICMP, including echo and trace route, is supported.
