Q

NAT Disadvantages

A

1) Many apps break when the IP NATs
2) End-to-end IP traceability is lost so troubleshooting is harder
3) Complicates tunneling protocols because NATs modify header fields, which interferes with the integrity checks that tunneling protocols use
4) the first packet is process-switched

Q

NAT Virtual Interface (NVI)

A

1) No need to identify inside and outside interfaces
2) Classic NAT first performs routing and then translates the address when going from inside to outside, and vice versa in the other direction. NVI performs routing, translation, and then routing again.
3) ip nat enable command in interface mode to use NVI
4) NVI not supported on Cisco IOS XE
