The basic purpose of NAT is to share a single public IP address with multiple PCs in the
private network by using different TCP ports for each PC. NAT is enabled by default.
Due to the NAT, computers behind the router will not be directly accessible from the
Internet. Hence, if there is a need to traverse the NAT from without, you will need to
employ the use of Virtual Servers. Virtual Servers lets you host Internet servers behind the
NAT by way of IP/Port Forwarding as well as De-Militarized Zone hosting.

products please turn to the NAT Technology Primer found on the Product CD.

Important
: Do NOT disable NAT unless you are certain
about what you are doing. Disabling NAT will disable
broadband Internet sharing effectively.
