VLAN

Interface

NAT

Pools
You
can

configure

Network

Address

Translation

(NAT)

pools

for

a

VLAN

interface.

NAT

is

designed

to
simplify
and

conserve

IP

addresses.

It

allows

private

IP

networks

that

use

unregistered

IP

addresses

to
connect
t

o

the

Internet.

NAT

operates

on

a

router,

usually

connecting

two

networks,

and

translates

the
private
(not

globally

unique)

addresses

in

the

internal

network

i

nto

legal

addresses

before

the

packets
are
forwarded

t

o

another

network.
The
ACE

allows

you

to

configure

NAT

so

that

it

advertises

only

one

address

for

the

entire

network

to
the
outside

world.

This

feature,

which

effectively

hides

the

entire

internal

network

behind

that

address,
offers
both

security

and

address

conservation.
