Well, it depends on how big your global pool is. Most people likely don't have more than a Class C public address space from their ISP, so it's likely less than 250 (because of static mappings for DMZ hosts). If you use NAT, then there is a one-to-one mapping from an internal host to an external IP address in the pool. If you use PAT, then you map many internal hosts to one external IP address (up to 64,000, but more like 4,000 in practice).

I didn't realize there was a cap. I was under the impression that the number of translations was directly related to the PIX user/connection license. -----Original Message----- From: Reimer, Fred [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2003 5:01 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: PIX translation problem [7:72567] No, but I know what it means. What kind of NAT are you doing? A global pool, or a single address doing PAT? If it's a pool, then you can define a single address (or interface) to do PAT when the global pool runs out. Or, if you already have PAT and that is being exhausted, then you can define a backup PAT address in case the first PAT address is exhausted.
