2.4 NAT

Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users at your local site to access the Internet
through a single Public IP Address or multiple Public IP Addresses. NAT provides Firewall
protection from hacker attacks and has the flexibility to allow you to map Private IP Addresses to
Public IP Addresses for key services such as Websites and FTP. You also can disable NAT
function and use the static route.
