Network Address Translation (NAT) allows mapping of an internal IP address to an external IP address. This conserves public IP addresses. NAT provides private networks access to the public internet. There are three main types of NAT: static NAT maps one internal address to one external in a 1:1 ratio, dynamic NAT maps many internal addresses to a pool of external addresses in a many:1 ratio, and NAT overload maps multiple internal addresses to one external address using ports in a many:1 ratio. The Cisco IOS commands can be used to configure, display, and clear NAT translations.

Network Address Translation
NAT Objective
• Upon completing this lesson, you will be able
to: – Configure the NAT: Static ,Overload and Dynamic
– Use the Cisco IOS command to identify the NAT
– Troubleshoot the NAT
What is NAT? • NAT is a protocol that gives you the ability to map an inside IP Address used in the local network environment to the outside network environment.
• NAT is used in our Internetwork to save
the space of the registered ip address. Benefit of NAT • Enabling a private IP network to use non- registered IP addresses to access an outside network such as the Internet • You need to connect to the Internet and your hosts don’t have enough public IP addresses. • Translating internal IP addresses assigned by old Internet Service Providers ( ISPs ) to a new ISP’s without manually configuring the local network interface . NAT Terminology Before continuing with this chapter, you should be familiar with the following CISCO terms:
• Inside network : This is the set of network
addresses that is subject to translation . The IP addresses used within the network are invalid on an outside network, such as the Internet or the network’s ISP NAT Terminology • Outside network : This is a network that is not affiliated or owned by the inside network organization . This can be the network of another company when two companies merge but typically is the network of an Internet Service Provider ( ISP ) The addresses used on this network are legally registered IP addresses. Static ,Overload and Dynamic NAT • Static NAT This type of NAT is designed to allow one to-one mapping between local and global addresses. Configure the Static NAT • Define the Interface – Mark the Interface connect to the inside
– Mark the Interface connect to the outside
– Establish the NAT translation between an
inside address and outside address. Example of Static NAT Dynamic NAT • This version gives you the ability to map an unregistered IP address to a registered IP address from the pool of registered IP addresses. Configure Dynamic NAT Example of Dynamic NAT NAT Overloading (PAT) • overloading really is a form of dynamic NAT that maps multiple unregistered IP addresses to a single registered IP address many-to-one—by using different ports.
