P-660HW-Tx v2 Series Support Notes
 
11. Is it possible to access a server running behind SUA from the outside 
Internet? If possible, how? 
Yes, it is possible because P-660HW-Tx v2 delivers the packet to the local 
server by looking up to a SUA server table. Therefore, to make a local server 
accessible to the outside users, the port number and the inside IP address of 
the server must be configured. (You can configure it in Web Configurator, 
Advanced Setup, Network -> NAT -> Port Forwarding).  
12. When do I need select Full Feature NAT
?   
• 
Make multiple local servers on the LAN accessible from outside with 
multiple global IP addresses 
With SUA, 'visible' servers had to be mapped to different ports, since the 
servers share only one global IP. But when you select Full Feature, you can 
make multiple local servers (mapping the same port or not) on the LAN 
accessible from outside with multiple global IP addresses. 
• 
Support Non-NAT Friendly Applications   
Some servers providing Internet applications such as some MIRC servers do 
not allow users to login using the same IP address. Thus, users on the same 
network can not login to the same server simultaneously. In this case it is 
better to use Many-to-Many No Overload or One-to-One NAT mapping types, 
thus each user login to the server using a unique global IP address.   
13. What IP/Port mapping does Multi-NAT support?
Multi-NAT supports five types of IP/port mapping: One to One, Many to One, 
Many to Many Overload, Many to Many No Overload and Server. The details 
of the mapping between ILA and IGA are described as below. Here we define 
the local IP addresses as the Internal Local Addresses (ILA) and the global IP 
addresses as the Inside Global Address (IGA),   
•  One to One: In One-to-One mode, the P-660HW-Tx v2 maps one ILA 
to one IGA.   
•  Many to One: In Many-to-One mode, the P-660HW-Tx v2 maps 
multiple ILA to one IGA. This is equivalent to SUA (i.e., PAT, port 
address translation), ZyXEL's Single User Account feature that previous 
ZyNOS routers supported (the SUA is optional in today's Prestige 
routers).  
•  Many to Many Overload: In Many-to-Many Overload mode, the 
P-660HW-Tx v2 maps the multiple ILA to shared IGA.
