(ASCEND) Follow up to NAT question
Hi,
This is a follow up to the NAT question I asked a week or so back. Don't
know if
it made it into the list.
Qn:
I have another question. my customer is currently running the set up with
a P50(w/o NAT) and a /29 subnet with a server running Mail and DNS service,
but wishes to expand to more than 50 workstations.
So my idea was to use NAT since the estimated number of concurrent users
using the Internet would be less than 15. Since he has registered his DNS
server
to be the primary DNS for his network with the local NIC. Would running NAT
result the DNS/Mail server not to function as DNS server needs the official
IP address which he registered, to receive and answer queries.
In this case, the Mail server would not work too?
Do I need to run the server with two network cards, one for the Internet
while
the other is for the internal network, and use a proxy server on the same
server
to meet my requirements? It would mean that I would not be using NAT in this
case. But using a subnet of two official IP addresses, one for the P50 and
the
other for the network card on the server.
Thanks.
Regards,
Sam
