WAN Connections and DHCP Configuration

This document discusses wide area network (WAN) connections and technologies including digital subscriber line (DSL), cable internet access, and the global Internet. It covers how devices can obtain IP addresses from a DHCP server and use network address translation (NAT) and port address translation (PAT) to allow private networks to connect to the public Internet. Commands to configure, verify, and troubleshoot NAT are also presented.

Network Address Translation

An IP address is either local or global.


Local IP addresses are seen in the inside network.
Global IP addresses are seen in the outside network.
Assignment can be static or dynamic.

Summary
Packet-switched networks send data packets over different
routes of a shared public network owned by a carrier to reach
the same destination. The route that the packets take to reach
the destination site, however, will vary.
There are several varieties of DSL, including ADSL, SDSL,
HDSL, IDSL, and CDSL. There are both advantages (speed,
always on, and so on) and disadvantages (availability)
to DSL.
Cable access to the Internet has become a higher-speed
alternative to DSL and serial.
The global Internet grew from a U.S. Department of Defense
plan to build a command-and-control network in the 1960s to its
present state as the largest WAN on earth, with multiple ways to
access it and multiple communication, research, and commercial
uses.
An interface can obtain its IP address from a DHCP server.

Summary (Cont.)
NAT enables private IP internetworks that use unregistered IP
addresses to connect to the Internet. PAT, a feature of NAT,
enables several internal addresses to be translated to only one or
a few external addresses.
You can translate your own IP addresses into globally unique IP
addresses when communicating outside of your network.
Overloading is a form of dynamic NAT that maps multiple
unregistered IP addresses to a single registered IP address
(many-to-one) by using different ports, known also as PAT.
After NAT is configured, the clear and show commands can be
used to verify that it is operating as expected.
