NAT
NAT (Network Address Translation) protocol translates IP addresses used on one network to
different IP addresses used on another network. One network is designated the inside network and
the other is the outside network. Typically, the UC-7400-LX Plus connects several devices on a
network and maps local inside network addresses to one or more global outside IP addresses, and
un-maps the global IP addresses on incoming packets back into local IP addresses.
