HI Brandon, Kings,

If I remember correctly, if you do not specify overload, the first ip that is matched from the access-list is natted to the external address, leaving the other potential devices being unable to access the network. When the nat-timeout occurs, the global ip address becomes available again. It is comparible with the global pool for nat, but then with just one ip-address.

E.g. nat is being applied.
When using the overload keyword, pat is being used.


You can compare it with the global command on the pix / asa.
If you specify global (outside) 1 ip1-ip2
than the first two devices accessing the network are being translated, the third one basically has bad luck until one of the first nat entries time out. Thats why I (almost) always configure a global (outside) 1 ip3 as well, so that PAT is occuring as well.

Just a tip, if you don't know it yet.

If you do a command like
"ip nat inside source 123 int dialer1 overload"
remember to also put a 
"ip nat inside source static tcp <internalipofrouter> 22 int dialer1 22 extendable"
in it as well. Otherwise you won't be able to remotely login to your DSL router/modem, as the dynamic nat would take presedence.


I think it could even a troubleshouting item in the lab as well..

Kings,  

I believe the IOS automatically overloads now if you don't specify.  Older IOS you had to use the overload command.

Hi Brandon
 
IOS accepts the following command without "overload" keyword. Isn't the following PAT?
 
ip nat source list 123 interface g0/0
 
 
 
 
With regards
Kings

Overload takes you from using NAT to using PAT.
