their whole network without needing a
block of static IP addresses from the ISP
i.e. the ISP sees the whole of your LAN as
a single IP address and the router
automatically sorts out traffic to the correct
local clients:
However using NAT has it’s advantages
and disadvantages. The advantages are it
allows you to easily run multiple PC’s
through a single user ISP account and it
acts as a natural firewall stopping
unsolicited incoming traffic. However the
disadvantage of NAT is that some software
needs the IP address of
the PC to be ‘exposed’
to the outside world –
this is just what NAT
stops! For some
applications you can get
around this using port
forwarding but not
always. In this case the
only way around the
problem is to turn NAT
off and open up you
network. To do this you
will first of all need to get
a block of IP addresses
from your ISP so that
you can allocate an IP
address to each of your
clients.
