ou answer [y] for yes, your
Prestige

3.5 Single User Account
Typically, if there are multiple users on the LAN wanting to access the Internet, they will have
to subscribe to multiple IP addresses from the ISP, which is generally more expensive than a
single user account.
The Single User Account (SUA) feature allows multiple workstations on your LAN to have
access to the Internet, but still only pay for one IP address, thus saving significantly on
subscription fees. (Check with your ISP before you enable this feature).
Figure 3-5 illustrates a typical Single User Account topology.
