Re: NAT question

HI Mustafa

Have a little read about the NAT order of operation

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk361/technologies_tech_note09186a0080133ddd.shtml

<http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk361/technologies_tech_note09186a0080133ddd.shtml>Once
you understand this you will know that "inside" NAT requires a routing
decision to me made before translation occurs.

ip nat enable

makes use of the NVI (NAT Virtual Interface) This ensures that traffic is
first forwarded to NVI which translates the traffic and then makes a
forwarding decision on the translated traffic.

This is all explained very clearly in the following link:
