Hey r/networking
I need to begin by saying I’m not a community engineer by any means. I work for a Cloud supplier and help clients with their networking sometimes. I just lately received a Cisco ASA for dwelling and began tinkering with it. I used to be all the time beneath the impression that basically there are 2 features of NAT. Nonetheless when engaged on the ASA I’m now beginning to query if my data of NAT is flawed or simply extremely floor degree. Positively took me longer than I might have favored to do a easy port ahead on the ASA lol.
Present data of NAT
1.) Translating the IP from one to a different (in my thoughts this is able to be a Supply NAT)
2.) Translating the port from one to a different. (in my thoughts this is able to be a Vacation spot NAT)
There have been senarios the place I begin to query whether or not my data of networking is “right” as I’ve solely needed to work on networks on a ticket by ticket foundation reasonably than what I do for work.
If there are any sources yall would suggest it will be a lot appreciated!
