OK - I screwed up my explanation/terminology - my mistake. I have this
nasty habit of assuming everyone knows what I'm thinking.

In saying "I never bother explicitly denying in my NAT pool what I am
assigning as a static further on" was meant with regard to internal
addresses - not external. I should have said "I never bother explicitly
denying in my NAT inside source list what I am assigning a static
translation further on". For that I can't see any problems arising and have
never run across any issues.

Obviously runnning a "NAT pool" with a range of addresses that includes
those you wish to translate statically would cause problems and I can't
dispute what you said - but I couldn't think of why anyone would do that
anyway unless they had enough public addresses to meet the number of
outbound stations.

But as we are playing the terminology game here I would have to get a
payback and add that running an inside source list against a NAT Pool using
overload is not a waste of addresses........provided the NAT pool only
contains one address.....for even when you are using one address - even
though it is really PAT - it is still called a NAT Pool :)

You should always deny an Inside Local address in your access-list if it
has a static nat entry. It can and does cause problems (you may have been
lucky thus far... ;-) Think about what happens if you have a pool
without the overload option and you have a pc that gets a dynamic
translation with that ip address and you also have a static translation
for that same Inside Global ip address? i.e.

10.1.1.1 200.1.1.1 static entry
10.1.1.5 200.1.1.1 dynamic entry

It won't work. The reason I specific "without overload" is it's really a
waste to use a nat pool with overload, you're just wasting ip addresses.
The reason for that is in newer code we do around 65,000 translations per
ip address and it will use up all 65,000 on the first ip address before it
moves to the next. So in reality you're only using one ip address out of
the pool. Given that, forget about using a pool and just overload the
outside interface, it's far easier anyway.
