I am sure that most parties involved in this list are familiar with the problem
of dynamic allocation (spoofing ?) of IP addresses to machines wishing to
communicate on the net, where all LAN based machines cannot be allocated a
static unique address.
That is, all LAN based machines have a local address, but still wish to
communicate accross the Internet with a legal,but scarce, IP address.
I understand the use of DHCP etc. , but is it possible to allocate a valid
address on the way out of a firewall and the reverse on the way in, and so
reduce any complexity of the LAN ?
The offshoot of this would obviously be the ability to use a single Class C
with a public and private LAN.
Is there a "black box" product which will allocate valid IP addresses to
any IP pipe.
I am primarily interested in Sun, but any UNIX variant should do.
If anyone has any ideas then please mail me, otherwise I apologise for
adding more insignificant postings to an already disillusioned group.
Why so much junk ?
Thanking you in advance
