Hi everyone,

Here is another simple question(ive given up feeling stupid/bashful asking these basic qns)...

If i have a range of addresses on a NAT pool -

ip nat pool NATPOOL 200.152.100.65 200.152.100.70 netmask 255.255.255.252

which wouldbe the addresses in the pool available for dynamic translation?

Or is this config wrong? Please advise...thanks lotz!

ip nat pool NATPOOL 200.152.100.65 200.152.100.70 netmask 255.255.255.252


The range of IP's you put in this statement are the IP's that you will be translating to. However your netmask is wrong for this range of IP's.


So when you put the next statement in the router......

ip nat inside list 1 pool NATPOOL

You are translating from your inside interface (that matches your acl) to your outside interface (using the pool as your inside global ip's)

Hope thats clear enough lol.

Thanks nooblet,

I saw this config as the answer in the NetSim lab manuals...so my hunch was right
Thanks a lot!
