Network Address Translation and Port Address Translation (NAT/PAT)
Network Address Translation (NAT):
• Allows customers to maintain their own private networks while giving them full Internet access
through the use of one or more global IP addresses.
• Allows several private IP addresses to use the same global IP address by using address
overloading.
• Facilitates configuration and permits a large network of users to reach the network by using one
Cisco uBR904 cable access router and the same DOCSIS cable interface IP address.
• Eliminates the need to readdress all hosts with existing private network addresses (one-to-one
translation) or by enabling all internal hosts to share a single registered IP address (many-to-one
translation, also known as Port Address Translation [PAT]).
• Enables packets to be routed correctly to and from the outside world by using the Cisco uBR904
cable access router.
• Allows personal computers on the Ethernet interface to have IP addresses to be mapped to the
cable interface’s IP address.
Routing protocols will run on the Ethernet interface instead of the cable interface, and all packets
received are translated to the correct private network IP address and routed out the Ethernet
interface. This eliminates the need to run RIP on the cable interface.
To implement the Cisco uBR904 cable access router, the Ethernet interface is configured with an
“inside” address and the cable interface is configured with an “outside” address. The Cisco uBR904
cable access router also supports configuration of static connections, dynamic connections, and
address pools.
Full and DOCSIS-Compliant Bridging
Full and DOCSIS-Compliant Bridging for the Cisco uBR904 cable access router complies with the
DOCSIS standards for interoperable cable modems.
Radio Frequency Interface MIB
The Radio Frequency Interface (RFI) MIB module is for DOCSIS-compliant radio frequency
interfaces in cable access routers and cable access router termination systems. On the cable access
router, RFI MIB entries provide:
• upstream and downstream channel characteristics
• class of service (COS) attributes
• physical signal quality of the downstream channels
