NAT is a special mode of operation in which the Express 4110/4120
obtains a dynamically assigned IP address from the peer router (typically
an Internet Service Provider). This allows a network of computers to ben-
efit from Ethernet to ISDN speeds while still appearing to the Internet Ser-
vice Provider (or central site router) as a single IP address, which is
typical of PC based serial dial-up solutions.
A call is initiated to the ISP using the Dial menu or demand for a Connec-
tion List profile that has the IP parameter NAT set to Yes. The network
computer's IP stack may use DHCP to request an IP address, default gate-
way address, and domain name server addresses from the Express 4110/
4120.
