sure, there are two models of the p25 sold now,
one supports a single user via NAT (P25-PX),
the other supports 4 via bridging (P25-FX).
if he has an older P25, sometimes called a P25 "classic"
it can support either IP or IPX routing,
the IP model used to have a part number "P25-1UBRI-2"
and supported any number of IP routed clients,
I think there was also a model of the P25-FX that
supported 4 clients with IP routing as an optional add-on.
Ascend used to offer an "upgrade" from the P25 classic,
to a P25-PX (also called a side-grade or a down-grade by some)
I can't find the version but there WAS a software release for
P25 classic that supported NAT... 4.6Ai?? 4.6Bi??
