Peter,
          Ezvpn can be a tricky topic. NAT is supported by both modes( NEM &
CEM). In Network extention mode the split-tunneling list defined on the head
end Device dictates what traffic would be NATed. Ofcourse, If
split-tunneling is disabled in NEM,no traffic would get NATed.

In NEM the IPSec tunnel can be initiated from either side which can be
kept up all the time(Special consideration is required to achieve it). In
(Network-Mode Plus) you can even request for an IP address via mode
configuration and automatically assign it to an available loopback
interface. The IPsec SAs for this IP address are automatically created by
Easy VPN Remote. The IP address is typically used for troubleshooting.

Hope this Helps.
