Heath, The clients are currently using public IP's. As for the logging, we wish to be able to track all translations and perhaps hone it as necessary.

Are your clients currently getting private or public IPs? What level of logging are you wanting to store (informational, all translations, etc)? Not sure I can offer much as we are just NATing at the perimeter, but these might be questions others might ask to help you. -- Heath Barnhart Asst.
