Re: (ASCEND) Pipeline 75: single address NAT in version 5.0B?
To the best of my understanding, the 5.0Ai16 functionality is not
implemented in 5.0b. Answers to questions such as yours should logically be
included in Ascend's FAQ for the P75. But, that FAQ doesn't address the
current iteration of the P75. <sigh>
