Jeff, This is not quite up-to-date. Nowadays all routers include NAT routing as well. Some call it masquerading, others NAT but they all handle it unless they're VERY higly specialized but the standards low & medium priced ones will cope. I'm not sure if the top line would as well. A visit to Cisco & Cabletron may clear this up.
