    This document discusses Network Address Translation (NAT) and Port Address Translation (PAT). It defines key NAT terms like inside/outside local and global addresses. NAT allows private IP addresses to be used internally but presents a public IP to the external network. PAT uses unique source port numbers to distinguish between translations when multiple private IP addresses are mapped to a single public address. The document provides information on configuring, verifying, and troubleshooting NAT and PAT, and notes the benefits of address conservation and increased network security they provide.

    NAT
    A

    NAT-enabled device typically operates at the border of a stub network.

    1 January 2012

    NAT Terms
    Inside Local Addresses An IP address assigned to a host inside a network. This address is likely to be a RFC 1918 private address. Inside Global Address A legitimate IP address assigned by the NIC or service provider that represents one or more inside local IP address to the outside world. Outside Local Address - The IP address of an outside host as it known to the hosts in the inside network. Outside Global Address - The IP address assigned to a host on the outside network. The owner of the host assigns this address.

    1 January 2012

    NAT Features
    Static NAT is designed to allow one-to-one mapping of local and global addresses. Dynamic NAT is designed to map a private IP address to a public address.

    1 January 2012

    PAT Features

    PAT uses unique source port numbers on the inside global IP address to distinguish between translations.

    1 January 2012

    NAT Benefits
    Eliminates

    re-assigning each host a new IP address when changing to a new ISP Eliminates the need to re-address all hosts that require external access, saving time and money Conserves addresses through application portlevel multiplexing Protects network security
