CCNA NAT SIM Question 1

Question

A network associate is configuring a router for the CCNA Training company to provide internet access. The ISP has provided the company six public IP addresses of 198.18.184.105 198.18.184.110. The company has 14 hosts that need to access the internet simultaneously. The hosts in the CCNA Training company LAN have been assigned private space addresses in the range of 192.168.100.17 – 192.168.100.30.

The task is to complete the NAT configuration using all IP addresses assigned by the ISP to provide Internet access for the hosts in the Weaver LAN. Functionality can be tested by clicking on the host provided for testing.

Configuration information
router name – Weaver
inside global addresses – 198.18.184.105 198.18.184.110/29
inside local addresses – 192.168.100.17 – 192.168.100.30/28
number of inside hosts – 14

The following have already been configured on the router:

- The basic router configuration

- The appropriate interfaces have been configured for NAT inside and NAT outside

- The appropriate static routes have also been configured (since the company will be a stub network, no routing protocol will be required.)

- All passwords have been temporarily set to “cisco”

Solution

Note: If you are not sure how NAT & PAT work, please read my Network Address Translation NAT Tutorial. You can download this sim to practice here: http://www.9tut.com/download/9tut.com_CCNA_NAT_sim_question.zip

The CCNA Training company has 14 hosts that need to access the internet simultaneously but we just have 6 public IP addresses from 198.18.184.105 to 198.18.184.110/29. Therefore we have to use NAT overload (or PAT)

Double click on the Weaver router to open it

Router>enable
Router#configure terminal

First you should change the router’s name to Weaver

Router(config)#hostname Weaver

Create a NAT pool of global addresses to be allocated with their netmask (/29 = 255.255.255.248). There were reports that the simulator in the real exam did not accept “prefix-length” keryword so you should use “netmask” keyword.

Weaver(config)#ip nat pool mypool 198.18.184.105 198.18.184.110 netmask 255.255.255.248

Create a standard access control list that permits the addresses that are to be translated

Weaver(config)#access-list 1 permit 192.168.100.16 0.0.0.15

Establish dynamic source translation, specifying the access list that was defined in the prior step

Weaver(config)#ip nat inside source list 1 pool mypool overload

This command translates all source addresses that pass access list 1, which means a source address from 192.168.100.17 to 192.168.100.30, into an address from the pool named mypool (the pool contains addresses from 198.18.184.105 to 198.18.184.110)

Overload keyword allows to map multiple IP addresses to a single registered IP address (many-to-one) by using different ports

The question said that appropriate interfaces have been configured for NAT inside and NAT outside statements.

This is how to configure the NAT inside and NAT outside, just for your understanding:

Weaver(config)#interface fa0/0
Weaver(config-if)#ip nat inside

Weaver(config-if)#exit

Weaver(config)#interface s0/0
Weaver(config-if)#ip nat outside
Weaver(config-if)#end

Finally, we should save all your work with the following command:

Weaver#copy running-config startup-config

Check your configuration by going to “Host for testing” and type:

C:\>ping 192.0.2.114

The ping should work well and you will be replied from 192.0.2.114

    OK, I realised I was wrong. It could be any ip addresses in the pool what the ISP gives. Dragonetti, you have to make a route in the ISP’s router, otherwise the ping won’t return to the hosts.

    I am just cusrious on what pool name can be used. can we use any name ?

    Or there is a given name during the exam

  10. b
    February 21st, 2011

    You can use any name for the pool just make sure you use the same name when you enable NAT (case sensitive). Also make sure your name doesn’t include any spaces otherwise the CLI will think you are moving on to the next part of the command. FYI I tested using letters, numbers, and underscore in the name and it worked. Not sure if you can use symbols but I wouldn’t make it unnecessarily complicated on yourself.

    For those who are confused about the use of the “overload” parameter in this sim, it is necessary because the question states that the 14 users need to access the Internet simultaneously. Since there are only 6 public IP addresses, dynamic NAT without overload would leave 8 users without access at one point or another. Hope this helps.

    How does the ISP router know where to route 198.18.184.105 to 198.18.184.110. Seen as this router has an IP Address of 192.0.1.114.

    Hi all

    this simulation is working fine for me. I can see the output of SHOW IP NAT TRANSLATION

    but i have a little confusion regarding the NAT pool range

    it says ”ip nat pool mypool 198.18.184.105 198.18.184.110 netmask 255.255.255.248”

    can we not write
    ip nat pool mypool 198.18.184.105 198.18.184.110 netmask 255.255.255.0 as well.

    or is it because ISP given us 6 IP address so the netmask have to be 255.255.255.248, /29 gives us 6 usable hosts.

    thanks

  19. miftaul
    March 14th, 2011

    I have mistakenly issued
    ip nat pool me 198.18.184.105 198.18.184.110 netmask 255.255.255.0

    now i want change it to

    ip nat pool me 198.18.184.105 198.18.184.110 netmask 255.255.255.248

    but
    no ip nat pool me 198.18.184.105 198.18.184.110 netmask 255.255.255.0

    doesnt work .

    it says pool in use, what to do, please help

    @tay
    hi y’all. what if we were given only one IP Add by the isp……do we still use pool?
    ——————————————–
    if ISP gives only one inside global IP address, then there is no need for pool.
    That address has to be configured on S0/0 of the router:

    Weaver(config)# interface s0/0
    Weaver(config-if) ip address 198.18.184.105 255.255.255.248

    Next will be mapping :

    Weaver(config) ip nat inside source list 1 interface s0/0 overload

    hi guys,

    why I could not ping any IP of my nat pools 198.18.184.105 198.18.184.110 from router and any host ??

  26. Achmed
    April 18th, 2011

    Can someone please explain this NAT-proccess…
    You have been provided an ip-range (198.18.184.105 – 198.18.184.110) from the ISP, but the assiged outside-local address for the S 0/0 interface doesn´t fit into this range?
    Isn´t this necessary?
    Is this a common senario even in real life?
    How does the ISP handle the routing? 198.18.184.104/29 —> 192.0.2.113?

  27. Achmed

    hi guys,
    I just got a question.

    I am confused with the terminology.
    you put Weaver(config)#access-list 1 permit 192.168.100.16 0.0.0.15

    I thought we were supossed to use named access list for NAT and PAt like this:

    ip access-list NAME..xxx xxx

    is it the same ? does it make any difference if I use named acls? would I get scored down?

  33. sheno
    May 29th, 2011

    dear brother

    u can use a named ACL but must be (standard)

    ip access-list standard name

    weaver(config)#ip nat inside source list sheno pool friends overload
    weaver(config)#ip access-list standard sheno
    weaver(config-std-nacl)#permit 192.168.100.16 0.0.0.15
    weaver(config-std-nacl)#exit

    Hi,

    Can help me about this point, if we configure NAT on real network we need to configure default route or static route to destination. but in the answer about this sim I don’t see you configure default route. is it enough answer for exam?

    why are we using 255.255.255.248 subnet mask for 14 hosts?
    shud it be 255.255.255.240?

  42. x919
    June 19th, 2011

    I know you can summarize with access lists. So which process do we use for coming up with “192.168.100.16 0.0.0.15″? The first half is the network for the range .17-.30 (last octet) with a /28 prefix, but it’s also the summary for that range. The wildcard mask can also be obtained by reversing 1s and 0s in the subnet mask, but also through the summarization…

    hello 9tut please help me with this query

    the pool should include 198.18.184.105 198.18.184.110 but with the netmask of 255.255.255.248 it gives subnets as follows
    198.18.184.0 – 7
    198.18.184.8 – 15 and so on

    so from the above mask it is clear that 198.18.184.105 and 198.18.184.110 are on different subnets so how it works….. im thinking 255.255.255.240 will be the correct mask …… please help with me this soon …….

  48. Tarun
    June 26th, 2011

    Thts Right Budy,

    Mask given is incorrect-/29 will end up like this :

    192.18.184.102 -192.18.184.110 giving .103 to .109 hosts in one subnet however .110 in next as network address.

  49. Tarun
    June 26th, 2011

    Hey Mate -

    Very sorry-Mask is correct :

    See subnet address for this would be
    198.18.184.0 -8,16,…80,96,104,112…..

    198.18.184.104 with .105 as first host and 110 as last usable host and hence

    ip nat pool whatever 198.18.184.105 192.18.184.110 netmask 255.255.255.248 should works.

    Please correct me if wrong

  50. dinesh
    June 26th, 2011

    sorry i got misunderstood…… the above works im sorry………. its with the above subnet the address will be 1o4 – 113 so it works perfectly…………
