Subject: Completely NAT an ISP: A practical possibility?
Date: Sat, 15 Jun 2002 17:14:29 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3D0BBC45.5000807@palaver.net> (raw)

I tried to capture the whole message there in the subject :-)

I wonder if the sages on this list might share advice as to whether or 
not it might be practical to maintain a working ISP where ALL client 
machines use private IP addresses, which are then NAT-ted to public IP 
space as necessary by iptables.

I am getting ready to deploy a small ISP, and this is a very attractive 
idea, but when soliciting ideas from various in-the-know folks I have 
consulted opinions seem to vary very widely.

The biggest drawback that has been voiced so far is that many 
peer-to-peer apps would break, but I'm not so sure right now that is bad 
thing.

All advice gratefully considered.

Thanks.

B.
