Title : Complications from Network Address Translator Deployment Topologies
Author(s) : B. Ford, P. Srisuresh
Filename : draft-ford-behave-top-02.txt
Pages : 25
Date : 2006-7-31
This document identifies two deployment scenarios that have arisen
from the unconventional network topologies formed using Network
Address Translator devices (NATs). First, the simplicity of
administering networks through the combination of NAT and DHCP has
increasingly lead to the deployment of multi-level hierarchies of
inter-connected private networks involving overlapping IP address
spaces. Second, the proliferation of private networks in enterprises,
hotels and conferences alike, and the wide spread use of remote
access Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) to access enterprise intranet
has increasingly lead to overlapping IP address space between remote
and corporate networks. The document does not dismiss these
unconventional scenarios as invalid, but recognizes them as real and
offers recommendations to ensure these real scenarios do work.

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.
