NAT reconciles the internal class “C” IP Addresses with the published Class “A” or “B” Static IP Addresses. It is this
protocol that makes it possible to share one published Internet address with multiple internal LAN devices. NAT
settings should be used carefully, because it may open the network up to malicious network attacks.
Remote devices use NAT to gain access to
internal devices. This protocol gives remote
computers, like one at a home with an
IP Address of 192.168.10.20,
access to a device in the office with
an I address of
72.77.21.99. This gives
remote locations the
ability access and program
a specific device, such as
the X-50 , from a remote
location.
