    CIP & IP Routing You can enable/disable NA(P)T via the 'IP address' table for each IP address of type CIP . This allows the AST570 to decouple the explicit assigned or implicit assigned IP addresses from your local network configuration. That way, the AST570 is able to act as a genuine LIS member and to route between the CIP LIS and your (W)LAN.
  • Page 208 16 Security Services - NAT & PAT Consequences of The NA(P)T feature comes at the expense of the AST570 transparency. This because a number of protocols that are layered NA(P)T on layers on top of either TCP/IP or UDP/IP do not adhere to the ISO/OSI reference model.
