is mapped to each WAN IP address. NAT can be applied in one of two ways:
• One-to-one mapping with a private side IP address
The private side IP address can belong to any of the private side subnets.
• One-to-many mapping with a configurable range of private side IP addresses
Ranges can be specified from each of the private side subnets.
To configure IP address mappings for the access point:
1. Select Network Configuration -> WAN -> NAT from the access point menu tree.
2. Configure the Address Mappings field to generate a WAN IP address, define the NAT type
and set outbound/inbound NAT mappings.
WAN IP Address The WAN IP addresses on the NAT screen are dynamically
generated from address settings applied on the WAN screen.
