Network Setup
Masquerading is a process which allows a whole network to hide behind one address. The MultiAccess can
use this to your advantage by allowing dial-up users access to your private and public networks yet hiding your
internal IP addresses and network information from the public network. Masquerading is also helpful when
there is a limited number of available IP addresses. Masquerading translates data packets generated by the
hidden network to the indicated MultiAccess network interface. All services are automatically included in the
translation. The translation takes place only if the packet is sent via the indicated network interface. The addess
of the MultiAccess network interface is used as the new source of the data packets.
The Network Setup > Masquerading screen allows you to select the network or group of networks to be
masked to a selected network card.
