I'll tell you about the NAT way first: there is not a way to translate some addresses and not others out the same wan connection... but, you can get _almost_ what you're looking for with standard NAT for LAN (available on both old and new P50s) example: p50 address now 172.16.1.1 wkstat1 ip addr now 172.16.1.2 new nat/wan p50 addr 172.16.1.1 new lan p50 addr 10.20.30.1 new wkstat1 ip addr 10.20.30.2 new wkstat2 ip addr 10.20.30.3 setup NAT for LAN, and then set the default server for inbound connections to 10.20.30.2. the net result being that inbound and outbound packets from wkstat1 will appear as 172.16.1.1 to the outside world (almost the same as functioned before but with p50's address) --- this is the wrong way, so don't by any means think I am suggesting to do this, but one that _HAS_ worked for one user I know of, just FYI. (although is anyone _does_ try this, let me know if it works...) assuming you have a 2-bit subnet (1 net +2 host +1 broadcast =4 addresses) p50 has ethernet ip address=network address (ex. 10.1.1.0) wkstat1 has ether ip = host 1 address (ex. 10.1.1.1) wkstat2 has ether ip = host 2 address (ex. 10.1.1.2) broadcast = broadcast (ex. 10.1.1.3) on pipeline set Ethernet->mod-config->ether-options->proxy-mode=always then there are two possible ways that may work, depending on your operating system: wkstat1 and wkstat2 set default route = network address if you have win95/winnt, this may work also: by setting the default route to the ip of your own ethernet IP, the system will ARP for ALL addresses: wkstat1 set default route = host 1 address wkstat2 set default route = host 2 address -Jim H ---- Jim Howard Sr Network Engineer Lyceum Internet jhoward@lyceum.com <A HREF="http://www.lyceum.com/">http://www.lyceum.com/</A> 404.248.1733 My PGP Public Key: <A HREF="http://www.lyceum.com/~jhoward/pgp-key.txt">http://www.lyceum.com/~jhoward/pgp-key.txt</A> Fingerprint: 7E8B E2BA 1314 2535 CB08 CFF9 119B 7CD3 2488 954D ++ Ascend Users Mailing List ++ To unsubscribe: send unsubscribe to ascend-users-request@bungi.com To get FAQ'd: <<A HREF="http://www.nealis.net/ascend/faq">http://www.nealis.net/ascend/faq</A>> </PRE> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <HR> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg09093.html">Re: (ASCEND) Unmetered ISDN VOICE calls</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg09092.html">(ASCEND) resetting full password on P50</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg09080.html">(ASCEND) NAT and static together?</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg09085.html">(ASCEND) Pipeline 400</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="maillist.html#09094"><STRONG>Main</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thrd178.html#09094"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> </BODY> </HTML>
