A question popped into my head while reading the earlier thread.
Assuming a web server is addressed via RFC1918 and accesses the
internet via NAT. Client is on some crummy link which requires a lower
MTU than the web server, ICMP T3C4 message sent back to the web server
(nat box). How does the ICMP message get back to the web server from
the NAT box? Are there specific NAT hooks for these types of
circumstances or are there special NAT provisions that need to be taken
into consideration when running services like this behind a NAT box?
(Assume NAT box is >= 12.0 IOS box).
