network address translation (NAT)
A feature that enables a LAN to use one set of IP addresses for internal traffic, and a second set of IP addresses for
external traffic. Thus many IP addresses within an intranet can be used internally without colliding with public IP
addresses on the Internet. The NAT device allocates a public IP address only when IP entities require service outside the
firewall.
network interface (NI)
A common boundary between two systems in an interconnected group of systems.
Network Inward Dialing (NID)
A features that a caller can use to dial directly to an extension number of the called user facility without assistance from
