I don't have Doel with me right now and I don't have the other book.
But lets see a sample usage of static route-map, see whether Doel is trying to achieve the same thing.
For instance you have a router with 3 interface. 1 to your LAN (100.0.0.0/8) and 2 to another network 1.0.0.0/8 and 2.0.0.0/8. LAN is NAT inside interface and the rest are NAT outside interface.
Now what static NAT with route map can achieve is to use a different static translation for the same source when going out to certain destination.
So say
100.1.1.1 going to 1.1.1.1 would be translated to 1.100.100.100 while
100.1.1.1 going to 2.2.2.2 would be translated to 2.100.100.100.
 
I don't know how to achieve the same with normal static NAT or dynamic NAT. This can be done by using static NAT with route-map. The past static NAT will NAT source to the static IP address configured without regards on which destination the traffic actually goes to.
 
Cheers,

Thanks Sameh for your response.

Actually, I was aware of that, but what I wanted to make sure of is whether
there was something I was missing in the Deal example that REQUIRED the use
of route-maps since the Doyle example seems to accomplish the same exact
thing without using route-map.

In other words, what added functionality does using the route-maps provide
if, as the Doyle shows you, the same thing can be accomplished without
route-maps?

Thanks again, Tim
