Personally, I'm sort of writing off NAT-PT completely.
Largely because the RFC for it was deprecated -
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4966
As well as lack of IOS support with it in CEF - CSCsh63881 (alternate
pinging with CEF turned on). Here's to hoping that they wouldn't put
a topic in the exam that has a fairly significant bug that exists in
nearly all of 12.4 mainline.
I've configured it a few times but I'm not planning on looking at it
very much, for what it's worth.
