the network, use an IP address of
0.0.0.0
in fields that apply to a default
gateway.
Network Address
Translation (NAT)
Network Address Translation (NAT) is used to re-map all the addresses on
a LAN to a single address on the Internet. This can be useful for three
reasons:
You may have a pre-existing LAN, not connected to the Internet,
which uses invalid Internet addresses. NAT can be used to connect
these machines to the Internet without changing all of their
addresses.
You may wish to obtain a single-user account from your Internet
Service Provider instead of a LAN account, since single user accounts
tend to be cheaper. NAT can be used to make all the machines on
your LAN appear to be a single computer hooked up to the Internet.
Additional security is provided when all the addresses on your network
are invisible to the outside world.
If you wish to use addresses on your LAN, which have not been assigned
to you by your Internet Service Provider, it is a good idea to use addresses
in a special range allocated for this purpose. The following three blocks of
IP address space have been reserved by the Internet Assigned Numbers
Authority for the purpose of creating private internets:
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255
If you use some other arbitrary range, then there is the chance that the
range is actually in use by someone else on the Internet. If this is the case,
you will not be able to access their sites from your LAN.
If you reconfigure the IP addresses of the machines on your LAN, it is
sometimes necessary to change their Default Gateway address as well.
Limitations of Using
NAT
NAT and Remote Access are not compatible features, since NAT hides
machines on your LAN from the Internet. If NAT is on, the only
machines on the LAN, which can be accessed, are those designated as
Public LAN Servers; these are available to anonymous users on the
Internet without authentication.
