[c-nsp] NAT, dual WAN and a cisco router

[Adam Greene]

Hi Adrian,

I don't see any problem with this configuration. Implement a different NAT 
pool on each WAN interface (assuming the two Internet connections are to two 
different providers). If you can, get at least one upstream provider to send 
you a default route via BGP. If that goes down, the router can fail over to 
a static default route (configured with a higher metric) pointing to the 
other provider.

Note that if the LAN is running any resources to which people connect from 
outside the network (for example a mail server), you may need to find a way 
to provide redundancy (for example, primary / secondary MX records).

Thanks,
Adam
