A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Network Address Translators Working Group of the IETF.
Title : IP Network Address Translator (NAT) Terminology and
Considerations
Author(s) : P. Srisuresh, M. Holdrege
Filename : draft-ietf-nat-terminology-03.txt
Pages : 30
Date : 07-Jun-99
Network Address Translation is a method by which IP addresses are
mapped from one realm to another, providing transparent routing to
hosts. Traditionally, NATs are used to connect an isolated routing
realm with private unregistered addresses to an external routing
realm with globally unique registered addresses. This document
attempts to describe the operation of NATs in general and to
define the terminology used to identify various flavors of NAT.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-nat-terminology-03.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
