This is how to configure a Technicolor gateway with two subnets on its
local network such that one subnet gets its addresses translated by NAT and the other does
subnet does not get NATed. Or, looking at it differently, adding a subnet of (e.g.)
not. This configuration is not recommended, far better to use a real
RFC1918 addresses which will be NATed on a router with an existing routeable IP block setup.
 
not.Mixed This configurationNAT is not recommended, far better to use a real
router made out of FireBrick, BSD or Linux that gives proper control of things
on an address level rather than on an interface level.
 
Firstly, you need to put a public address on the Ethernet interface.
this needs to be added for each of the public addresses that have been
assigned. Thankfully these days only small blocks are obtainable.
''[Actually according to an application note it is possible to specify address ranges, e.g.''
:nat mapadd intf=Internet type=nat outside_addr=192.0.2.[2-6] inside_addr=192.0.2.[2-6]
''but your author doesn't have enough routeable addresses to check that this works.]''
 
== Firewalling ==
 
There is still a problem, however, if you want to allow unfettered access inbound
accessto inbound tothe thatrouteable address(es) -- it will get caught by the stateful
firewall. Again there appears to be no way to selectively disable the
keeping of state, so it must be turned off globally:
AAISP's Broadband Backup product you'll be OK though.
