Re: IP NAT Inside and outside on the same interface

Ron has found what is known to be the only way to do it, but as Ron
implies, probably is best to avoid (great job Ron!). We discussed this
here within tac a few months back and I believe someone was able to get
it working in our lab with two loopbacks and policy routing (but didn't
need secondary ip addresses I don't believe, probably a different way to
do the same thing). BUT... it isn't what I would call a
"supported" solution by TAC. There are a lot of things you can do with IOS
that will work in a way that wasn't intended for it to work. We actually
get quite a few requests for this feature so I suspect you'll see it a
command to allow this sometime in the future, although it would probably
be a complete NAT code redesign and might be awhile.
