(ASCEND) Re: Pipeline 75<-->75 and NAT.

I got a phone call from Ascend on my tech support email (apparently
it was an oddball thing to be trying). The magic thing to enable
is "DHCP Spoofing" under Ethernet/Mod Config on the _remote_
Pipeline. I'm not sure this is the end, though, because this causes
it to provide the "Rem Addr" address to the caller, regardless of
how I setup the DHCP parameters. Since I _wanted_ it to pass out
a static IP, that's fine.
I've only had two problems thus far. One is that traceroute doesn't
work behind the NAT router, though it worked when I was using Linux
to IPMasq. I don't even get a report for the first stage of the
traceroute - I can traceroute to the NAT router's local address,
but I don't get the local address response if I traceroute past
it. I also can't traceroute or ping _to_ the NAT router from
outside.
The other problem is that the NAT box doesn't get a route to the
address it was assigned. The remote box _does_ get a route, though.
This means that I cannot attempt to connect to services at the NAT
IP address from the private LAN side of things - though it works
fine from the public side via "Def Server".
Thanks,
